As most of you know Landrieu got the job because it was stolen for her in New Orleans. Does state law allow for outside poll watchers and if so how can we help? There are lots of FReepers in the surrounding states and this election is on a Saturday.

We are studying this sort of thing right now. We plan to be in Louisiana every weekend between now and Dec. 7. We're having a lot of questions answered and will let you know when we know more. Over 50% of the people voting voted AGAINST Landblew, so she is vulnerable and can be beat.

Hehe! A FReeper in every polling place...it doesn't get much better than this!

Not surprisingly, the Louisiana Secretary of State website provides no guidance in that matter.

400 mile drive from Houston -- New Orleans. If we can help, let us know. Runoff date is Saturday, 7 December.

I don't know, HC, but I'll find out tomorrow.
I'm not too busy to make a trip to New Orleans to poll watch.
That means we have to become familiar with Louisiana election laws so I'll see if I can get a copy of those if we can participate.
I'll post the info tomorrow!
Great idea!

Maybe y'all could shed some light on the situation. There's some folks on the other side of the Sabine that are interested in picking up another senate seat ; )

I'm trying to talk the Wife into a Thanksgiving trip to Baton Rouge. The hotels attached to the casino's have cheap rates and Hilton garden Inn and the business suite hotels are running specials that weekend. Isnt Baton Rouge Livingstones old district?
