DescriptionAttorney General Buddy Caldwell has won a second term in office, after his only competitor dropped out of the race.

Former U.S. Rep. Joseph Cao filed paperwork Tuesday formally withdrawing from the election, a spokesman for the Secretary of State's office said.

"After meeting personally with Mr. Buddy Caldwell, who made the assurance that he will fight for the best interests of the people of Louisiana, I am announcing that I am dropping out of the race for attorney general," Cao said in a statement issued through his spokeswoman.

Both Cao and Caldwell are Republicans.
