The machine got cranking here in EBRP about 3 weeks ago and you could tell the motivation was there.

Seems like there was a lot more politicking than normal this time in BR.

It really is disheartening that just a couple of super concentrations of people can essentially control the entire rest of the state.

But it is what it is.


Though, I have serious doubts that the founding fathers ever intended to allow such a populous to have so much voting power.

Time for statewide electoral college by parish

Would make JBE have to actually sell himself in other places

They were running the race baiting ads during the Saints games. It was pretty gross. I'm sure the voter fraud and transportation system were equally gross.

The Democrat buses have been moving for weeks, taking people who otherwise would never go to the polls and have no idea what is going to, and dropping them off with a list of who to vote for in order to get their free meal. fricking disgusting.

That turns the entire election into a game. If they don't want to vote, they shouldn't be voting.

Remember that the next time someone bitches about the Electoral College.

The founding fathers were brilliant.

Kyle Ardoin won by 18 points with those same voters.

Rispone failed because he annoyed enough Abraham voters to vote Edwards or stay home and that enabled Orleans and EBR parish to get JBE the win with their turnout machine.

Now look at the crime rates. How weird that these crime ridden shite holes want a Democrat in office so badly.

Rispone didn't lose because of EBR/Orleans/Jefferson. He lost because he pissed off enough Abraham voters that they either didn't come out or switched to JBE. Look at the primary results in places like Franklin, Richland, and Lasalle, then compare them to yesterday's results. JBE did much better there and elsewhere in N LA than he did in October.
