Damn. Gotta love courts thinking they know better than the people

There is still the state Supreme Court. Either side was going to appeal. That said, I'm shocked by the verdict.

Libs love whiteys money but they don’t love Whitey. This was completely predictable when the advocate wrote a glowing piece on how swell of a guy the liberal judge is.

So one person decides?

They will appeal, and should.

BATON ROUGE - A judge ruled against allowing the incorporation effort of the proposed City of St. George. A legal fight is expected drag on even after the decision through appeals. The decision was first reported by The Advocate. The judge said the proposed city wouldn't be able to balance its budget. Earlier this month, both sides of the dispute rested their cases. Judge Martin Coady made the ruling. The proposal to split St. George from the rest of the capital city was approved during 2019's fall election with a 54-percent vote. Since then, the effort to enact that separation has been held up in the ongoing legal battle.

I love how the reason they lost was because they couldn’t balance the books. That’s the whole fricking reason why the incorporation is because the parish mayor could not balance the fricking books.

What are the details?

Me too.
To think we all live in EBR Parish; yet the judge believed only certain folks have the right to incorporate. BR, Baker, Zachary and Central have rights under the state constitution that we don’t have.
It’s a real shame.

This will likely be the final nail in the coffin for me. I’ll see y’all anywhere but Louisiana.

Why is The Advocate stuck on stupid with this inaccuracy?

I know there's appeals but sorry - I think this is a major, major blow to the city's cause.
The will of the people means nothing.

Absolute bullshite.
This was the most American thing ever. A group of people decide they want to change things and try to do so within the system and then when that doesn’t work they go around door to door to petition to get a vote to make their own system. Said system passes by a vote of the people and our betters claim they know better.
Disgusting. The fact that it had been delayed until now is insane much less losing the court case

So a vote of the people, in a lawful election, has nothing to do with this? Why have a lawful election if you're not going to follow the letter of it?

It's purposeful.
If people understood it was no "secession" they wouldn't care

We are disappointed, but we will prevail.
Don’t ever under estimate us.
