We are getting a 2nd black congressman. Obamas appointed judge will see to that. You have to kick the challenge down the road when Biden is gone So it comes down to Letlow or Graves.

Letlow is better to keep than RINO Graves


You need to keep up.

The new sixth district didn’t have to include Cleo Fields. They could have drawn a minority district without including Fields.

If you look the new sixth has a weird “peninsula” that includes precincts along Bayou Manchac east to included the precinct Fields lives in. That wasn’t necessary to make a minority district.

It appears the politicians just didn’t exclude Graves, they included Fields. Looks to me like a Quid pro quo.

I take it that you are unaware that a person doesnt have to live in a district prior to declaring to run for that seat> Cleo could have always run in any newly created seat, and then move if he wins
