Turnout for Lousiana Primary Low


According to CNN, Louisiana officials are saying the turnout for the LA primary is low. Around 15%. They go on to say that witout big local elections it's hard to energize the electorate.

Personally I think that spells problems for Barack Obama. I think he does well when there are larger turnouts because they're likely filled with newer voters and younger voters. People who don't usually vote.

Low turnout may represent democratic faithful and that, in my opinion, leans toward Hillary Clinton. We shal see. Polls close in Louisiana at 9:00pm.
