As for 190, it was a major clusterfrick. Now it is only a clusterfrick at rush hour.

Its a clusterfrick every freaking day/ all day trying to get to the bridge from Hwy 25.

Plans have been made for new/ expanded bogue falaya bridge since the late 90's. The previous Mayor before Cooper was working hard on it. Then for whatever reason Cooper sat on the project or wasn't a priority.

Was he involved with turning 190 into the "super highway"? Because 190 is one of the single best traffic improvement projects I've ever seen

As someone who’s looking at land off 1077 at the Southernmost part considered Folsom, I’d like to hear more...

Are y’all saying something was done to make this area more flood-prone or it’s just developers getting away with developing an area that floods because money in politics?

He’s a good guy and very solid elected official.

I like him personally but way too ambitious of a move here. Does he even have 1 full term on city council under his belt?

I’ve known Tranchina since we were kids and he is a very solid guy all around. Smart, great experience and training and a home town guy.

Lentz seems sharp in many ways but hard to overlook his long tenure as 2nd or 3rd under Strain. He resigned when the stuff first started coming out and left town for a couple years, then returned and was Covington police chief and seemed to have done a good job.

Your map is correct and noted.
I assumed he meant the portion from 1-12 to Covington.

Ehhhhhh, Falconer has been around too long, time to send him back to his bee farm permanently. I don't really know about the other two......might as well write in a name, they are all equally worthless and ineffective.

I don't get the hate about Brister, She pushed to get some needed infrastructure projects going. Alleviating the traffic issues on 190 and 59 is a god send....screw the NIMBY"s, St Tammany has about 250,000 people we are not the "different world" anymore, we are the suburbs

Patrick McMath was the only one who came to my house and talked to me, he also sent me a hand written post card thanking me for my time and ideas.

I don't know the other two guys. And they didn't knock on my door or write me a note.


Tell me who you guys like over Brister, or if she is the best choice.

Crain is a fricking embarrassment and should NEVER be allowed to sniff the Supreme Court. I beg you to do some basic research on this imbecile because if you do you’ll never vote for him. .

He is abysmal and not well respected at all. Read some of his infamous one word decisions. He is a joke.

If you like corruption then he is your candidate!!

Vote against Crain is a vote for Louisiana’s corrupt trial lawyers. I’m guessing you’re one of them.
