Leon A. Cannizzaro, Jr., D barely edged out Democrat Ralph Capitelli in the Orleans Parish election and what was considered to be a hotly contested race on Saturday, October 4.  A runoff is expected between the former assistant district attorneys for the New Orleans seat. 

 

In addition, also in New Orleans, Christopher Bruno slightly beat Paul Brown, both Democrats.  Robin Pittman will face Yolanda King in judgeship races.

 

Karen Herman and long-time Judge, Gerald Hansen won straight-up in the New Orleans-based races.

 

Woody Koppel handily beat his opponent Percy Marchand for Orleans Parish School Board.
