So Baton Rouge and new orkeans are majority black.
Black mayors, black police chiefs, black judges, democrat judges.
Only black people can be racist in Baton Rouge and New Orleans.

Guess the 70810 zip code will continue to be the city’s piggy bank (richest zip code in EBR parish)
70810 is also the zip code for Gardere/Old Hermitage. That’s area’s not white nor rich.

Pretty sure #2 was brought up because that sack of shite was in danger of not even being a councilman due to residency issues IIRC.

The reason BR can’t incorporate St. George is that it is too white. State law say you can’t incorporate an are a dilute the minority population. And by minority they mean non white.
How can you dilute the unincorporated parts of EBR? We are not part of anything except the parish, and the state.

First circuit decision has glaring error: the only remaining plaintiff is not a valid plaintiff. A single councilman cannot sue for the city. Only the council as a whole can authorize litigation for the city. The correct ruling is that there are no valid plaintiffs (plaintiffs with a right of action) who timely opposed petition.
That’s what I’ve been saying the city nor the parish sued. Private citizens did.

I think he used incorporate when he meant annex. Basically he is saying that the city of BR can’t annex parts of St. George because it would dilute the minority population.

I've never heard of the principle of non-dilution of minority voted strength applies outside of drawing district line within a political entity (town, city, state, school district). Applying the concept to the formation of a city is a huge stretch. By that argument, you could claim that any city that is majority white could be dissolved if there is a nearby minority population.

I want to say it is because the area is under restrictions from the Voter Rights Act of the 60s.
Any area which was named in the act and not yet released from it is hamstrung on a lot of actions it can do with regards to voting such as purging rolls.

OT researchers: 1- check plan of government to make sure single councilman can’t start litigation for city. 2-check to see if objection to councilman right of action was made at trial court.
This issue was addressed, at length, between pages 5 and 11 of the Court’s opinion.

They already are by EBRPSS, who is refusing to put any new schools in the St. George area. Woodlawn High is about 300 students over capacity. They are holding classes in closets and teachers lounges, and they are usually over fire code.
