The line was literally out the door. I talked to the poll watcher and she said it’s been like that all morning.

And, this is in a state like Louisiana where there is absolutely no doubt Trump will win. This tells me that the turn out for Trump in this election is going to be MASSIVE and record setting. People are really tired of all the fricking shite that is being pulled off in Washington, in Hollywood, and in the news media.

Let’s make this TOO BIG TO frickING RIG!

Jefferson Parish same. Early voting usually 7-10 people in line. There were about 300 in council chamber as staging who were then moved into line of about 40. Good system though and it only took me about an hour to get through.

I'm new to Tangi Parish. Obviously DJT. We okay with Scalise? And where are we at with the two referendums?

CA No. 1 (Act No. 408, 2024 - HB 300) - Provides relative to federal proceeds from alternative energy production (Select 1)
Do you support an amendment to require that federal revenues received by the state generated from Outer Continental Shelf alternative or renewable energy production be deposited into the Coastal Protection and Restoration Fund? (Amends Article VII, Section 10.2(E)(1))
YES
NO
Parishwide Proposition - 1% S&U Tax Renewal - PC - 4 Yrs. (Select 1)
Shall the Parish of Tangipahoa, State of Louisiana (the "Parish") be authorized to renew the levy and collection of a tax of one percent (1%) (the "Tax") (an estimated $33,000,000 is reasonably expected at this time to be collected from the levy of the Tax for an entire year), upon the sale at retail, the use, the lease or rental, the consumption, and the storage for use or consumption, of tangible personal property and on sales of services in the Parish for a period of four (4) years, beginning December 31, 2025, with the net proceeds of the Tax (after deducting the reasonable and necessary cost of collecting and administering the Tax) to be dedicated and used exclusively as follows: twenty-five percent (25%) of the proceeds of the Tax to be used to pay the cost of operation of local government and seventy-five percent (75%) of the proceeds of the Tax to be used to fund the Parish Road and Bridge Fund in order to pay the cost of road and bridge maintenance and improvements within the Parish?
YES
NO

Scalise is awesome.

No on the amendment. Money should go to the general fund, IMO, instead of more coastal wetland boondoggle projects.

In Lafayette Parish. I showed up about 20 minutes after it opened and there was already a line of about 300+ people.

It was the same in Livingston. I voted for the the god emperor for the third time. I voted down all taxes and mill renewals giving how the parish is trying to screw people on their property taxes.

My thinking is there are more opportunities to waste the money in the general fund
I guess it really doesn’t matter either way, it’s going to be wasted anyway

My dad sent me a video from his polling station in Mandeville this morning.

He was in a long line out the door and he said he’s never stood in a line there before even on election day

Should have gone to the one in Livingston by the new courthouse by the interstate. I was in and out of there in less than 5 minutes.

Voted in North Georgia where there is almost always no line in a precinct that went 75% to Trump, I had to leave after waiting in line for 15 minutes. I will try again next week
