Midterm election watch parties on campus, in New Orleans
On Tuesday, Americans across the country are heading to the polls to cast their votes for the midterm elections. Those voting in person on Nov. 6 and those that voted early at the polls or by mail are shaping the next two years of American politics. Will Democrats succeed in their push to take back the House? Will Republicans hold onto control for another two years? If you are interested in finding out election results, here’s a list of election night watch parties around campus and the Greater New Orleans area.
