I voted for Cliht too and thought he would win. I've only lived in Ascension since Katrina, so I didn't realize how prevalent the good ole boy network was here. I hope Clint runs again too

frick Matassa and his good ol boy bullshite. Because of him, we are stuck with no responsible infrastructure planning with roads, real estate and commercial developers are running buck wild, subdivisions are just being thrown up left and right without a moments thought and the sewage and drainage are becoming bigger problems.

He should've lost to Clint last fall. Such a crooked piece of shite.

I told everyone on the Poliboard that Matassa was crooked to the bone, just like Tommy. That's why St. Amant tried so hard to get some new blood in their with Cointmont to break up the old D-Ville cartel. It's a shame that crook won by just a few dozen votes.

The Marcellos still run Donaldsonville and Ascension Parish and always will unless the East side wakes up and stops voting for these goons.


It's going to be hard to do but I think the future is going to lie with Prairieville as it's the most monied area of the parish and eventually we'll get a challenger out of here with pockets deep enough fight D-ville and set a narrative to how this Matassa type is not conservative and not a real republican.

Goddamn, Matassa's face is so fricking punchable.

Well, looks like ole Kenny has responded.....

Letter to the Editor: Parish President responds to controversy regarding taped recordings

quote:

I am respectfully writing this letter so that the people of Ascension Parish fully understand the issues related to the news stories and controversy regarding the recent release of a taped recording where my name was repeatedly mentioned.

quote:

I knew nothing at all about this taped conversation and was not a part of it in any way. I now know it was a telephone conversation between a supporter, Mr. Pendarvis, and I am told the other party was a supporter of my opponent who saw fit to tape record the conversation


quote:

I apologize for not being as articulate as I should have been during the TV interview. I will never win an award for public speaking, but that should not imply a lack of integrity in my leadership.

When a parish has a huge influx of population, but there still is no money to build a mere shoulder on a single road, you know something is crooked. A parisg of this size should be getting major retailers and even more small businesses and yet virtually nothing- that suggests somethong is awry. I didn't vote for this guy and I didn't vote for Cointment either because he seem like a good old boy too.

I disagree with that. Loar was an outsider and didn't stand a chance and it will happen again. If Clint runs again he will win especially now after everyone is seeing the real Matassa

Things would be the same with Cointment. His dad is the epitome of a Gonzales/Ascension good ole boy. Cointment was just a puppet for that good ole boy network.
