A collapsed building, a deadly Mardi Gras, and a cyberattack. That was not enough. A global pandemic was thrown in for good measure. All of this during Mayor LaToya Cantrell’s first two and a half years in office. Yet, in the face of this and more, she has made tough decisions and stood her ground to serve the best interests of the city and its people. For that, she is our person of the year.

There are non-moronic black people because I know/have known quite a few.

Why do only the morons get elected?

Well since you aren’t Jewish, how is da Destroya going to know that you are a “good whitey?”

Perhaps you should wear “the pin.”

I would like to see a breakdown of the vote in terms of demographics. It is my understanding that Charbonet got the Lions share of the white vote. I will have to research that.

Based on early returns, Cantrell likely benefited from African-American voters, WWL-TV pollster Ron Faucheux said. Meanwhile, Charbonnet, a former Municipal Court judge, appeared to take the white vote by about 30%; both candidates are black women.


65-35...that is a rout in terms of white voters.

[quote]she wouldn’t be the mayor without the white vote [quote]

She won with 60% of the total vote. The “white vote” was 30 percent of the total vote. In short, she won 11+% of the total vote by getting 35% of the white vote.

In short, no whites equals 48 percent and change give or take.

That means, as you stated, she couldn’t have won without white vote (even if she lost it decidedly).
