Because nobody pays attention to local politics. Idiots run, and people just vote for a random name or the name that sounds most familiar to them. It has become very difficult for people to learn more about their local candidates now that local news has mostly died out due to the reliance on social media for most news sources. It's a problem

It had been six weeks since the station’s exclusive report on Tape’s 2002 indictment on child sexual assault charges involving his then-girlfriend’s 7-year-old daughter. The indictment was thrown out after a New Mexico court found prosecutors took too long between arresting and indicting Tape, who was in medical school at the time.


I don't usually root for the reporters on these types of deals but wtf is this coroner guy thinking?

Because no normal, sane person wants to put themselves or family through an election where everything he or she has done in past is scrutinized through today's lens of hypersensitivity.

Imagine being a decent person so you decide to run and they link you to your TD handle. You would be ruined.

When people born post 1985 start becoming the main candidates for public office it’s going to be wild

This is the case - no one else ran, so we got stuck with this weirdo.

I ran for state rep and had no issues.
Of course, I didn’t come close to winning.

In a rural parish coroner is a pretty sweet deal. You might go weeks or months without having to do anything. In a parish like St Tammany I imagine it's close to a full time job. No competent doc wants to give up a lucrative practice for that.

I dont know the guy or live near St Tammany. Was he found guilty of anything? Or was it just unfounded accusations? Why was he charged but then never taken to trial? Lack of evidence maybe? Was this a case of a girlfriend falsely accusing the boyfriend? I have a hard time believing that the DA failed to take the case to trial, in a timely manner, if he had solid evidence in the case.

No longer are we an innocent until proven guilty society.

And to me this is the maddening part of people that want to bitch about everything political. They can sit there and go on for hours with their Biden/Trump bitches, or for the big named people in Congress that represent other States; yet they no nothing about the local mayors, city council, school board...

Then again, why should I expect them to pay attention to offices that will actually affect them when they can't even pay attention to the big races that actually make headlines. Looking at the election results from this weekend, you still have people casting votes for Presidential candidates that already dropped out of the race

no one pays attention and/or they think everything is great because they compare STP to the surrounding parishes.

Is having an office party at midnight on the day you take office a common thing?

Don't think the new coroner is going to last long.
