据决策台总部（DDHQ）预测，路易斯安那州民主党州众议员帕特里夏·摩尔和共和党州众议员加布·菲尔门特将在路易斯安那州第五众议院选区竞选中进入决选。
Democratic Louisiana state Rep. Patricia Moore and Republican state Rep. Gabe Firment are projected to advance to a runoff in Louisiana’s 5th House District race, according to Decision Desk HQ (DDHQ).
据DDHQ称，截至周三凌晨12时53分、93%的选票已统计完毕时，摩尔对菲尔门特的领先优势不到一个百分点。
Moore had less than a one percentage point advantage over Firment as of 12:53 a.m. with 93 percent of votes in on Wednesday morning, according to DDHQ.
两位候选人各获得略低于18%的选票，其余选票由另外七名候选人瓜分。
Both candidates received just under 18 percent of the vote each, with the remaining vote total split among seven other candidates.
两位候选人将于12月12日进入决选，以决定由谁接替共和党众议员朱莉娅·莱特洛——她离开席位后成功竞选参议员。第五选区涵盖路易斯安那州东北部和中部部分地区。
The two candidates will proceed to a runoff on Dec. 12 to determine who will replace GOP Rep. Julia Letlow, after she left her seat to launch a successful bid for Senate. The 5th District encompasses portions of northeastern and central Louisiana.
在美国最高法院裁定该州由共和党绘制的新地图构成违宪的杰利蝾螈后，该选区的初选被取消。
The primary race in this district was canceled after the U.S. Supreme Court ruled the state’s new GOP-drawn map was an unconstitutional gerrymander.
据摩尔的竞选网站介绍，摩尔于2019年当选路易斯安那州众议员，一直主张保护和扩大医疗保健可及性、投资小企业以及降低日常开支。
Moore was elected to the Louisiana House in 2019 and has advocated for protecting and expanding healthcare access, investing in small businesses and lowering everyday costs, according to her campaign website.
菲尔门特已在路易斯安那州众议院任职六年，担任州众议院保险委员会主席。
Firment has served in the Louisiana House for six years, where he chairs the state House Insurance Committee.
他的竞选纲领包括降低税收、加强公共安全、保障社会保障和医疗保险福利以及保护第二修正案权利。
He campaigned on lowering taxes, strengthening public safety, safeguarding Social Security and Medicare benefits and protecting Second Amendment rights.
