Add one more Democrat to our House majority! (won in rethug district in the South)
-snip-

Don Cazayoux (D) won a special election yesterday in LA-6 "bolstering his party's majority status on Capitol Hill by taking a seat Republicans have held since 1974," according to the Baton Rouge Advocate.

Cazayoux beat Woody Jenkins (R) "to cap a race that Democrats viewed as a chance to further tighten control over Congress. The seat opened when Republican Richard Baker, a 20-year incumbent, resigned to take a lobbying job."
