Ep. 76: John Couvillon

Republicans are roughly a year or less away from capturing a plurality in Louisiana's voter registration, pollster John Couvillon said in the latest episode of the LaPolitics Report Podcast. "The bigger picture, which is also worth communicating to you, is the Democratic plurality in voter registration is steadily shrinking," said Couvillon, founder and president of JMC Analytics & Polling. He added, "I think later this year and/or early next year you will have a Republican plurality in our state. And that actually is already the case in many rural parishes." Couvillon also discussed the approaching fall ballot and the hot races brewing in New Orleans; what the next round of redistricting could hold for the Bayou State; and his real feelings about the convergence of artificial intelligence and polling. Plus, we turn the dial back for our regular history feature to revisit that time a Louisiana governor was sprung from prison. Think you know who it was? Listen now!
