Ok, but didn’t it come down to JBE taking the side of Broome and strong-holding the process?


No, it came down to St. George losing at trial court level then that ruling being affirmed by 3 GOP elected judges on the La 5th Circuit Court of Appeals.

... after a single democrat sued thousands of people for casting their vote in an election. A democrat that is a metro councilman who owns a home in another district where his wife still lives, but he lives in an apartment inside his district. But let's not lose focus here.

I’m no legal scholar, but the Appeals Court did not affirm the ruling. They actually sided with SG and ruled that Broome had no legal standing. Only Cole did.

Unfortunately, they went back and said the actual petition people signed years ago wasn’t detailed enough and thus the entire desl was null and void.

He can’t overrule the courts.

He can, however, fast track state approval of any new petition and start fricking with BR and EBR Parish for them playing dirty on this.

After the election the executive branch could’ve proceeded with the incorporation. There was never a court injunction. Edwards and the SOS could’ve certified and so on. Just like Pence did in 2020 despite ongoing court cases Trump was perusing.
