There wasn't a lot of difference between the mayoral candidates and none of them were promising to basically turn the city into a prison camp, so the mayoral election wasn't that big a deal. Rispone shot himself in the foot by targeting New Orleans and hoping there were enough resentful rednecks so dumb that they're afraid of the city and hate it to outnumber the voters in the state's only real population center. It's like no one told him that he'd have to be governor of the city, too. Whoops.

The fact that people like you think people making enough money to live and women having equal rights are bad things also explains your confusion at why a ridiculous fascist like Rispone lost.
In reality, there are about 258,000 registered voters in Orleans Parish, so turnout was not spectacularly high. We just don't like fascists here. It turns out that in cities, you get to meet people of different backgrounds and cultures and you find out they not only are they not scary, they cook tasty food and make good music. It makes quaking cowards like Rispone and all his voters seem sad and childish. But you're welcome for our state not embarrassing itself by putting that ridiculous fool in office.
It's almost like someone amended the Constitution a long time ago to make sure that people other than white male property owners could vote. When did that happen?
Probably because some Americans remember when this country fought fascists. Republicans were slow to come around then, too, but at least they didn't run too many of them for office.
It's amazin ghow this is "pretty well established," yet all these thousands of notional buses and sheets of instructions manage to pass through our cities without anyone in this age of ubiquitous video cameras ever catching sight of one. How on Earth do they do this? Have Democrats cracked the secret of Klingon-style cloaking devices? Are they using secret tunnels through the planet's core?
Gee, it's almost like human beings vote instead of empty space. I sure wish someone had taught me that before I signed up to be a hundred acres of nutria habitat.
"David Duke without the baggage" can only have been talking about the Ukraine Security Assistance Initiative. If you actually care enough about this to have an opinion, you should care enough to check whether he's representing it accurately. Fortunately I've done the hard work for you, and here it is: LINK

Whether he's ever read it remains an open question.

But you - yes, you! - can do better than our imbecilic, racist Congressman and read it for yourself. You'll want to to start by searching for' Ukraine' using Control-f. Once you do and you read on a little, you'll find this chestnut:
"129 STAT. 2379 PUBLIC LAW 114–113—DEC. 18, 2015 SEC. 8116. None of the funds made available by this Act may be used by the National Security Agency to— (1) conduct an acquisition pursuant to section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act of 1978 for the purpose of targeting a United States person; or (2) acquire, monitor, or store the contents (as such term is defined in section 2510(8) of title 18, United States Code) of any electronic communication of a United States person from a provider of electronic communication services to the public pursuant to section 501 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act of 1978."
In other words, it is completely illegal to tie payment of the aid to investigation of any American. You know, the thing Oompa Loompa Mussolini specifically did.

Then you'll want to search for 'corruption' in connection with any assistance to Ukraine. Go ahead, you'll find the same thing I did - it simply does not appear (it does, however, appear with respect to South Sudan and Afghanistan, among other places).

So, you might want to start getting your information from people other than racist/fascist con artists like Scalise.

Of course, your use of the idiotic alt-right slang "cuck" means that you're a garbage human anyway, so little things like reason and facts don't play a part in your thinking.

yep delivery to the polls on buses


Ah, plainly you were on the ground in New Orleans on Saturday, where indeed the streets were jammed with long lines of buses. Where do you people come up with these fantasies?
Not unless we vote to amend the state constitution. What have you been smoking?
It's better than four years of a fascist with so little spine and self-respect he campaigned on promising to lick peanut butter off Oompa Loompa Mussolini's yeti pubes.
