The most closely watched race in tomorrow’s election will be that in the 6th district. Four Democrats and one Republican are vying for the seat in the newly-drawn majority-Black district. Elbert Guillory is the lone Republican running in the race; he says education is among his top priorities.
Cut 7 (09) “…an illiterate society.”
Cleo Fields, who’s widely seen as the overwhelming favorite, echoes Guillory’s sentiment.
Cut 4 (06) “…care about education.”
Another Democrat seeking the seat is Quentin Anderson, who says one of his top priorities is to boost the minimum wage, which hasn’t increased in 15 years.
The other two Democrats on the ballot are Wilken Jones and Peter Williams.
After losing their seventh game in a row, the Saints have fired Head Coach Dennis Allen.
Cut 2 (33) “…I’m Jeff Palermo.”
Here we go again. Tropical Storm Rafael has formed in the Caribbean and is headed towards the Louisiana gulf coast. The system is expected to weaken or even dissipate before it reaches the coast. Still, LSU Public Health Climatologist Barry Keim says Saturday’s LSU game might get a little wet.
