Same ole same ole
I hope there will be multiple candidates for every office. That’s not to say I won’t vote for/support one or more of the incumbents, but it’s important that voters have a choice. It’s better for the process and we have a better, healthier political system when every office has challengers.
In the recent Parish Government election every district had choices and there were 7 candidates for parish president. We need the same kind of opportunities for the city government.
why in the “heck” do you keep letting Sylvia Morrow run ? And we
need a new mayor who won’t jam a silly ball park down our throats.
