Laughably, he was late in sending in this letter of resignation to the Secretary of State’s office, proving once again that he was incapable of doing anything right. However, he did make the right move by leaving as his departure can only mean good news for a city suffering from a high crime rate and poor image.
October 26, 2007….The elections of 2007 seem destined to usher in a new type of politics for Louisiana. Although the turnout was not high at only 46%, the results were earth shattering.
