Very interesting I see that DEM William Jefferson voted yes, Who represents very Democractic New Orleans voted Yes, while REPUB Bobby Jindal voted no. Be interested to know why. Both districts have heavy union influence though the Baton Rouge District that Jindal represents might have more.

New Orleans is on the mouth of the Mississippi (think trade port)...Baton Rougue has all the factories in the state (think manufacturing going abroad).

Someone else represents Baton Rouge--Richard Baker, I think. Jindal represents Metairie and the other suburbs.
