Chocolate City chooses a mayor

New Orleans is electing their mayor right now. They’ve got a handfull of legitimate candidates and about 15 quacks running. One of them I can call more my own than they can, Roderick Dean lists Louisville as his hometown. It doesn’t matter. One of the quacks will win, probably in a landslide. As dangerously inept and 100% wrong in how he handled Katrina, Nagin knows how to stuff the ballots. The easiest thing to manipulate during an election is absentee ballots, and this election is going to be about 75% absentee with Nagin sending workers to several cities to collect absentee votes. I’m sure most of the ones for Nagin will make it back to New Orleans. The Federal Election Commission needs to be all over this election. New Orleans has suffered because of constant corruption in the politics. The need to clean it up NOW. But I can guarantee you, they won’t do it. They’d rather take their chances with Nagin handling another Katrina than think about the options presented to them. Even if those options mean voting someone who’s not chocolate.
And if you all do what I expect and re-elect someone you know can’t and won’t take care of you, don’t come running to me when Nagin destroys New Orleans again during the next hurricane.
