Republican Congressman Piyush 'Bobby' Jindal has created history by becoming the first-ever Indian-American to be elected a governor in the history of the United States.
Louisiana's media heaped praises on the 36-year-old Indian American Congressman. Here are some excerpts from what prominent newspapers had to say about Jindal?s win:
The Times Picayune had a jubilant Jindal, waving to his supporters at Baton Rouge locality of Louisiana, on its front page with a special mention of he being the United States' first governor of Indian descent.
Jindal received 699,672 or 53.61 per cent of votes, which put him over the top of the magic 50 percentile that precludes a November run-off and automatically makes him the next governor of Louisiana.
