Edwards Win Likely, But Don't Be Surprised By a Vitter Upset

The long and contentious race for Governor will soon come to a close. Kyle Kondik from the University of Virginia's Crystal Ball blog weighs in on State Rep. John Bel Edwards' chances of victory given his lead in the polls over U.S. Sen. David Vitter.

Kyle Kondik is managing editor for Larry Sabato's Crystal Ball, and Director of Communications for the University of Virginia Center for Politics. Earlier this month, Kondik ruled that the gubernatorial race was a toss-up. Just Wednesday evening, one of his colleagues revised the ruling to lean towards a victory for John Bel Edwards.
