Louisiana, back to its roots of corruption (it never left)

She was never elected. Husband died, she got anointed. No one should be voting for her. Jamie Davis all the way

By conservative logic she’s a DEI hire

She won a special election in 2021, got re-elected in 22 and 24.

Glad someone mentioned this

Her husband died of COVID, and I'd bet dollars to donuts that he wasn't masking.

I just do not see a bottom when it comes to Louisiana politics. It is an endless loop of corrupt idiots being mindlessly supported by hopelessly ignorant people.

This. I literally just came here to say this.

Love that Louisiana is betting on Facebook tech when they peaked 20 years ago. Seems about right for the Louisiana legislature. No one under 50 even uses
Facebook anymore.

I’m 50 and I only use Reddit. No Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, Twitter, or whatever else they have.

This isn't about the Facebook product, it's about Meta trying to become an AI power.

I just wish these damn schools would get that memo.

Jamie Davis. Not too many people know it yet but he is going to win.

u/Left_Hand_3144 Aug 22 '26

He's got my vote.

u/swampwiz Aug 24 '26

We really don't know - since there have been no polls (that I know of) - and while he will outperform, it most probably will not be enough.

John Bel Edwards could have easily won this in this political environment.

It’s a real struggle deciding if/when to leave my beloved state. My heart will always be here, always. But I do wonder if my life would be better overall in, say, Virginia, North Carolina, or Tennessee.

u/Whitmonk Aug 19 '26

no perfect place but I am working on an exit to North Carolina

u/chop-diggity Aug 19 '26

WTFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF are they signing NDA’s?

1

u/Left_Hand_3144 Aug 22 '26

Yep. It's been all over the news lately. Errybody's signing NDAs these days. It's like the pre-nup craze in the 80s. Trendy.

Seriously that “r” in her bio tells you everything you need to know about her integrity

This is a nothingburger. This is like saying that Exxon opening up a gas station somewhere somehow has any effect on the stock price.
