Your numbers basically do back up what I had said, of course, especially in what the Neither Black nor White could do to Orleans politics if 100% of those registered will show up, and they are Turning OUT today, you heard it here first.

I do not think that the primary in November had anything like 32 or 35% of the bodies at the polls in Orleans actually being White, I think they just judged that many MUST have shown up, to yield what [few] Republican votes there were. Myself, I think a lot of those Republican votes were also cast by Blacks, which the Democrats don't want to even have us THINK about, and the whites all stayed home and snoozed that Tuesday.

Not today though.

I think so too. Nationwide. Are you saying that the "Neither" vote is going Republican?

Well everyone can have an opinion right or wrong... but them are the numbers from Elections division of La. and not some exit number estimate.

26.9% of the others voted in the Primary election.....

"Voter turnout disappointing so far

Turnout low in New Orleans

Associated Press


A local elections official says voter turnout was low this morning in Orleans Parish in the United States Senate race.

Registrar of Voters Louis Keller says he was disappointed by the relatively small number of people who voted in New Orleans. But Keller says he expects the numbers to swell as the day goes on.

Analysts say incumbent Democrat Mary Landrieu needs a big turnout in heavily black areas like New Orleans if she is to beat Republican challenger Suzanne Haik Terrell."
