If the election were held today, The Donald would crush Hillary in a race that currently sees him sitting pretty with a 52%-36% lead, according to a poll from JCM Analytics of 600 registered voters from around the state. Pollster John Couvillon says, "I think its a combination of they don't like Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders, and while they don't necessarily approve of Trump, they agree with his frank remarks." Couvillon also pointed out that 6 out of 10 polled disapprove of Clinton, period.

Perhaps most shocking is the fact that Trump leads Clinton with woman overall, 48%-42%. Alexandria and the Ark-La-Tex are two of Trumps strongest sections of Louisiana, while New Orleans is where Clinton holds sway. But I wouldn't read too much into this just yet. The election is months away, and both of these candidates have proven themselves capable and willing to do or say some really dumb stuff before then. And knowing their backgrounds, I'm sure we are about to witness the most thoughtful, issue orientated election eruditely discussed by two of America's classiest big thinkers. Gitcher popcorn, the circus is coming to town...
