Two Governors Named Edwards Visit Legislature

Louisiana State Capitol

There's no confusing the two, but Louisiana lawmakers were likely surprised yesterday to find two governors named Edwards in the House chamber.

Both current Governor John Bel Edwards and former Governor Edwin Edwards were there to pass their best wishes along to Butch Speer, the retiring House clerk.

Edwin seemed to endorse John Bel's bid for a second-term but lambasted today's political environment as wrought with "too much confusion and not enough cooperation."
