Louisiana Freedom Caucus Sweeps Elections
The Hayride ^ | 10/16/23

BATON ROUGE—The Louisiana Freedom Caucus (LAFC) is honored to announce that all of its Founding Members were successful in their re-elections to their House seats or in their run for the Senate in the primary elections held on October 14. We have also made substantial gains in elections for new members with several more in both the House and the Senate on great footing as we move into the runoff period.

“Louisiana has the greatest people in the world. We have the most abundant natural resources, we have a culture that other states envy, but we have never had a great government. With the election of Jeff Landry and the overwhelming success of the conservative Republicans across the board, we are now set to change that. It’s not going to change overnight, but for the first time in its history, Louisiana finally has a team in place to chart a course that shakes off the chains of the past and makes Louisiana’s government as great as its people,” said Senator-elect Alan Seabaugh, Chairman of the Louisiana Freedom Caucus, who was elected to Senate District 31 with 54% of the vote after a staggering amount of special interest money was spent in an attempt to take out the founding chairman.

“Current Republican leadership of the House and Senate worked in lock-step with John Bel Edwards. Their political games have left Louisiana with serious problems. But on October 14, voters made it clear that the reign of the RINOs is over! 2024 will begin with solid conservative Jeff Landry as governor, with a supermajority of Republicans in both the House and Senate, and with a public that has grown intolerant of smoke and mirrors. New Louisiana is dawning!” said Rep. Beryl Amedée, Secretary-Treasurer of the Louisiana Freedom Caucus

During the Plandemic, Democrats ruled Louisiana. I live in Texas and have family in Mississippi. Going through Louisiana during this time was like going from Freedom to slavery back to freedom.

It will be interesting to watch as the Cajuns and red necks
fight it out for control. Some good parties will abound.

It was said during the Huey Long epoch that anyone who thought he was a political expert should come to Louisiana for a post-grafuste course.

The Seabaugh victory was particularly delightful.

P.J. O’Rourke accurately described NO as a “high crime drainage ditch.”

I got lost driving to Bourbon street in nawlins...stopped and asked cop how to get there. He looked at me as if I was kinda crazy..being in that neighborhood at about 12 midnight. My guess is that He thought I was there to buy drugs or prostitutes. Got there...left at 4 am...when the gross smells of puke and urine came out. Disgusting.
