re: Mythical St. George becomes reality TODAY

Wish yall baws the best of luck tomorrow and a new city is born tomorrow

Will Woodlawn High become part of the St. George independent school district? To my knowledge, there’s not another public high school that would be in St. George.

I live in a St George neighborhood that skews pretty old in stretches and the anti-St George signs are plentiful. Not that there’s any statistical weight to that observation— just seems to support that some of the elderly folks are leaning “no”.

That is why I am not as convinced it will pass as I had been before the last few of weeks. The scare tactics they are using work with retired people are effective especially bringing in Skip to sale the Together lie. If they are not sure who to trust between 2 sides and are making out ok with status quo that's they way they will vote and avoid risk. If unsure They also would be likely to wait until Saturday to vote, but they will vote.

Also any SG supporter who put off voting until tomorrow can easily get overconfident with talk that its done deal and choose tailgating instead of waiting in line to vote. That will not happen with anyone who has been moved by the recent large push with Skip, the Advocate, and sensitive to the financial scare tactics being used. They will make sure to still vote.

Everything is pretty one sided in local media, and I really have not seen anyone dynamic enough pushing StG to overcome any fear or doubt caused by this hard push recently especially with media playing to BR. Bringing out Bertman was brilliant being what voters were undecided. It doesn't have to be true. its what looks true. Bertman was full of crap and probably reading lines, but he has always been a salesman. I think it was a homerun with seniors and undecided who got pushed towards keeping status quo versus embracing the unknown. I hope SG supporters are pushing their message and to get vote out until polls close even with game.

When they form the ISD, Woodlawn would be the sole HS in St.G

I would bet, they would change the name of the school, to something more fitting.

This vote for St George is an act of racism and would kill Baton Rouge financially

Baton Rouge is already dead financially because of people like you voting in the current leaders.

Racism is the cry and argument of the ignorant.

I want you all to cum for me

Just so you know, Baton Rouge has the best credit rating out of all municipal governments in Louisiana.

Baton Rewwage has an angry black woman mayor. You good people need to get the frick out or overthrow this shite.

Idc if she is black or a woman if they are a competent person. That is my argument. We currently have a mayor, literally going door to door to push her narrative.

I said this in another thread, but just because she’s an elected official doesn’t mean she can’t have a political position or campaign on her on time.

I’m pro-St. G but have nothing against the Mayor-President volunteering to campaign against the initiative.
