This is interesting, and raises all sorts of issues that I can’t see clearly enough at the moment to develop. (Maybe later, at Fruits and Votes).
But there is an even greater urgency to figuring out how (or if) displaced voters will vote. There is a runoff election for Louisiana Judge, Court of Appeals, 5th Circuit, 1st District, Division B. In plain English, that’s Jefferson Parish.
This election is scheduled for October 15. That is also the date of primary elections for state legislature in advance of the general election on November 12.

Well if the Black people come back to New Orleans, which I suspect they will, I predicte Nagin will be reelected by the largest margin in the history of the city.
Shoot, after this he’s got a shot at running for president.
President Ray Nagin, kind of has a nice ring to it doesn’t. Our first black president handed to us on a platter by the GOP, go figure.
