What the heck is up with voters in Louisiana’s House District 60?

from The Scoot Show with Scoot

Democrat Chastity Martinez just crushed Republican Brad Daigle 62–38 in a district that voted for Trump by double digits. That's not just a win; that's a 37-point swing in a district that reliably votes Republican, or does it? How are voters there actually making decisions now, and what still cuts through party identity? What lessons can politicians take from a district like this? John Couvillon, a Louisiana-based pollster & founder of JMC Analytics and Polling, joins Ian Hoch to explain what's going on.
