During a "60 Minutes" interview Sunday, Gov. Jeff Landry (R) was pressed about what would happen to the roughly 45,000 ballots that were cast prior to the high court's decision.
"This country has held elections during the Civil War, during two world wars, elections still went on," correspondent Cecilia Vega said.
"We'll have an election, and we're actually gonna have an election on election day," Landry responded.
"But voting was already happening," Vega said, cutting Landry off. "As we sit here right now, more than 45,000 ballots have been returned. What happens to those?"
"Oh, those ballots are discarded," Landry said. "And those people will vote again in November."
Vega seemed to take issue with the cavalierness of the governor's response.
"You say that like it's not a big deal," she said.
"Well, it's not a big deal," Landry responded. "It's not my fault. If anyone has a grievance, take it to the United States Supreme Court."
