By Christine O'Donnell,

The first Indian-American was elected as governor Saturday in Lousiana, according to the NY Times..

The needs of Louisiana's citizens were more important that racial or ethinic concerns.

Governor Bobby Jindal, 36, is the son of an Indian Immigrant. He claims that he is a "normal red-blooded football loving Louisana guy."

After the devastation of Hurrican Katrina, Gov. Jindal plans to bring the state out of depression.

Gov. Jindal won with a 54% vote.
