La Secretary of State’s website crashes during election

That’s the headline and story in Louisiana where Republican Schedler edged out fellow Republican Turner for the position.  The large number of hits on the website by media and the general public with smartphones brought down the site.  Schedler won by about 9,000 votes according to complete but unofficial
returns. He had 50.53 percent of the vote in the two-man race.
  With a race that close, the new Secretary will have an appreciation for the next recount.
