Forty-four percent of Boulet’s fundraising has come from outside Lafayette Parish, compared to 11.5% for Guillory and 2.6% for Swift. Boulet’s largest fund sources outside the parish are NEW ORLEANS (6.5%), New Iberia (5.4%) and BATON ROUGE (4.2%)

This is the most concerning statistic I’ve seen about how we can expect to be led by a Boulet administration.

Like most who reflect on Edwards, Boulet remembers him as a lively soul. She recalled the first time Edwards met her husband.

“David is a republican and he was ready to zing him. Governor Edwards walked up and kind of cut him short and asked him what a republican is doing with a fine democrat and caught him completely off-guard,” Boulet said. “It’s just his genuine witty way. He’s always been engaging, full of life and full of joy.”

Here’s another example of Boulet admitting who she is politically in an article about EWE after his passing.

New Iberia, where her family is from. Baton Rouge, where her mother was Governor. And New Orleans because of the contacts in the post-Katrina era. This makes perfect sense.

As for Blanco-Boulet having been a registered Dem because her mother was a Dem Governor, that doesn't mean anything. If my mother was Governor, I'd register whatever party she was so as not to create a controversy.

Blanco-Boulet is a very experienced manager and would make a really good mayor. Josh has issues, rehab, lawsuits, work in the middle of the night, no bid contracts, and the like. I don't know if he is corrupt, but he certainly has never been able to explain half the crazy stuff he's done.

Either way the next mayor will be a republican. All my liberal friends were backing Swift because of her podcast, which I've never heard.
