Ralph Abraham, R-La., during a mock swearing in ceremony on Capitol Hill in Washington. Abraham has jumped into the Louisiana governor’s race, becoming the second Republican to announce he’ll challenge Democratic incumbent John Bel Edwards in the 2019 election. The congressman’s decision Thursday, Dec. 6, 2018, comes a month after he won re-election to a third term in the U.S. House and days after U.S. Sen. John Kennedy declared that he wouldn’t run.
