In his ruling, O’Callaghan said in listing a voting address inconsistent with his homestead exemption, Perkins submitted false information under oath that was mistaken or inaccurate, which therefore disqualified him according to state law.

That law states: “When an objection to candidacy is sustained on the ground that the defendant failed to qualify for the primary election in the manner prescribed by law, that the defendant failed to qualify for the primary election within the time prescribed by law, or that the defendant does not meet the qualifications for the office he seeks, the final judgment shall disqualify the defendant as a candidate in the primary election for the office for which he failed to qualify properly.”

Nope. Fuller and Chavez have a way better chance than anyone else. And quite frankly both of them are the right candidates at the right time.

I voted for Perkins and totally feel like this is a proper end to a laughable tenure.

Proof he's a democrat. Nothing is ever their fault, not even their own actions

I dont think so, I live in a neighborhood.

Im not sure where he lives honestly.

I was making a joke about Perkins' quote talking about the lawsuit.

quote:

Everyone knows that I live in the heart of downtown Shreveport. This is nothing more than a frivolous lawsuit by Greg Tarver’s attorneys. The public is more than aware of the fact that he doesn’t live in Shreveport, but resides in a mansion in Blanchard.

I read an earlier report where he blamed flashing lights from a TV in the staff area. Incompetent POS has screwed up since day one as mayor and it's never his fault...

There’s two really good candidates in arrceneaux and Chavez

There’s two okay candidates in fuller and tarver

The rest don’t stand a chance and I don’t know what they bring to the table

I know nothing about Chavez but no way Fuller will win. That lady is not very bright.

That was the Caddo DA race and the PAC he supported got James Stewart elected and he’s about as good at putting away murderers and thugs as Perkins is at filling out election qualifying forms.
