All of this is probably moot because the entire parish of EBR would get to vote on that change.
You also had this in that post. Is this still correct?

I thought they had stated yesterday that the vote comes down to just people residing in StG.
Just like Baker, Zachary and Central had to do, a new SG school district would require approval by voters on a statewide and EBR basis to amend the state constitution to set up a new ISD. That also requires a 2/3 majority of the legislature to put such an amendment on the ballot.
Bodi White claims he has some super-clever way of avoiding a constitutional amendment but every attorney who has commented on his "no amendment needed" plan that I've seen (with the exception of Woody Jenkins who I'm not even sure is still a practicing attorney) disputes his opinion.
Basically if SG doesn't need a constitutional amendment to set up an ISD then why did Baker, Zachary and Central need an amendment?
