Every Congressional district map in LA in recent decades has been gerrymandered. And just because thE new 6th district has 53.5% registered black voters does NOT mean Cleo Fields will win thaT SEAT. Black voters in our state are notorious for NOT voting in elections. It would not surprise me at all if Graves wins re-election inspite of what Governor Landry wants.

That being said, I will vote for Fields over Graves who has been a very ineffectual US Rep.

So you are anti-oil & gas and pro-income redistribution? Just asking.

Don’t tell that to folks who have waited decades for the Comite Diversion, Graves got that moving.

Graves also help expose the Broome lie about the Feds’ role in storm mitigation. There was no non disclosure agreement.

Graves >>>>>>>>>>Fields

That is my point too. If there are enough conservative white voters that show up Graves should win. Also, it is a presidential election cycle where Trump is on the ballot. Graves could ride Trump’s coattails and get some crossover black votes unless Graves gets beat at the pass in the Republican Primary against a Black Republican who defeats him in the primary, if we start that this year.

Heck since Landry and Cleo have become BFF’s Cleo should become a Republican to really screw Graves…LOL.
