Cantrell to become New Orleans' first woman mayor; Nguyen upsets Gray in District E; Banks beats Bloom by 131 votes in District B
LaToya Cantrell will be New Orleans? first-ever woman to become mayor in the city?s nearly 300-year history. New Orleans voters elected the District B City Council member in the runoff against former municipal court judge Desiree Charbonnet, capping off a contentious election cycle marked by scandals over public credit card spending, attack ads and debate over the future of the city?s post-Katrina infrastructure, short-term rentals, crime, and the troubled Sewerage & Water Board. ?Almost 300 years, and we?re still making history,? Cantrell said at her campaign party at the New Orleans Jazz Market Nov. 18. Cantrell spoke to Charbonnet over the phone earlier in the evening as early polling returns put Cantrell in the lead.? |

Ok.
Jails Jobs Cut welfare rolls by getting and encouraging N.O. being a place where you have to work. Street repair Litter laws enforced and hiring sanitation workers/street cleaners/people to clean up .you have a big population to be employed to do that. Eminent domain. Confiscate and tear down eyesores left from Katrina and even before the hurricane. Extra time in working hours for NOPD and sheriffs police. Clean up the FrenchQuarters of trash and music and things that do not belong there. Keep an honest administration. Transparent. Family, friends, etc can bid on anything like anybody, but no grace and favors. I hope Cantrell will be that change NewOrleans needs. |
