The talking heads speculate that these are white precincts. What precincts are nearest the counting center?

I was in the Garden District a few weeks ago and someone still had a "Kerry/Edwards" sign on their lawn.

Pathetic losers...lol.

The polls have closed for New Orleans' municipal elections. Elections officials plan to release early returns at 8:30 p-m Central time.

Count those hanging Chads! Is Jimmah Cawtah there?

I early voted for Forman. I am concerned about his past support to the Morial administration, but I am giving him the benefit of the doubt and count it as the cost of doing business in New Orleans. He seems to be a very good business man with a good head on his shoulders.

I felt the same way when I voted for Nagin last time. (Him being a democrat) I know you freepers who are not from here will not understand, but I really feel that Nagin has gotten a raw deal. He has openly endorsed Jindal, a republican. I think his hands were tied by our stupid Governor we have during the Katrina mess. I think he is very tired and suffering from huge stress. He is not a stupid man and I have not heard of any ties to corruption. I feel bad for him. (ducking to avoid eggs being thrown!)

The command center is at the Mariott. These are today ballots, not absentees. Those will be read with fanfare in about 30 minutes. I would suspect it is the French quarter.

They're not dead. Ole Marie LaVoux conjured them up some "souls". Demoncrat souls. Rarely used, rarely tested.

I support you. HEck I campaigned for Nagin the first time. The Governor never forgave Nagin for endorsing Jindal. Lives were lost partly because Blanco feelings were hurt

Most of the early votes are from District A. Can any locals explain what part of New Orleans District A covers?

I'm not criticitizing anyone who voted for Nagin back then. But in the aftermath of Katrina we ALL saw his true character exposed. So, no he has not gotten a bad rap. He is an idiot and a fool and anyone that could support him after his implosion during Katrina is also a fool. Anyone who publicly says the Lord's name in vain twice in the same sentence is unfit for office.

It is the far west, one of the two white areas I would think, but not the heart of the garden district, I don't think. That is B it looks like. Click here.
