Bobby Jindall, from Louisiana, "narrowly" edged out his opponent with a 78% margin of victory [heh] to become Congressman-elect for the 1st Congressional District of Louisiana. He's the first Indian-American (his folks are immigrants from India) to be elected to Congress.
And he's a Republican.
Take that and stick it, tiny-umbrella Dems.
hey! I n a couple of years, he'll be old enough to run for president, and with his qualifications (and if his performance in the House matches up with his past record), I'd look forward to a 2008 race with him on the ticket.
