Problem is that the petition got enough signatures, got approved by the state, signed off by the governor, and then won their election.

Kinda fricking late to toss it 4+ years after the election when that wasn’t even an argument in the suit IIRC.

The issues was openly debated by parish leaders. Voters were informed west mire than they are when we vote for amendments and tax renewals.

The Governor, and the SOS all approved the petition and a legal election was held.

Oh I'm with you. I get the intent behind the law so that new political subdivisions can't overpromise with no intent on delivering on those promises, but this wasn't even part of the original appeal.
