The justification people gave was...

It was raining on the day of the run-off so black turnout was very low.

heh

Surprise surprise, we won by TURNOUT

In a 67% black district

Actually to be serious

Dollar Bill Jefferson's corruption case helped a ton.

@Nuke have you ever been to New Orleans? What do you think of that place

@Deleted User of course I have haha

I live in suburban New Orleans.

New Orleans is a massive ghetto.

There's better areas

but it's like

There are people in New Orleans who will steal cars and then drive them off the road and then back into the road to destroy it to not be bored

We need welfare cuts, and we need them now.

They cut my dad's pension for THAT.

And that's in a better area where white people shop

There are nightclubs with snipers on them in New Orleans East.

New Orleans East is like, a former "suburb in the city" that is now basically 90% black

It was made for whites' starter homes/apartments/condos.

So black single moms moved into them as they were cheap.

Most of New Orleans is horrible and full of crime. Tourist zones are typically safe due to heavy, heavily-armed police presences.

Overall I kinda like it I guess

yeah this Jewish chick I met, who is a transplant to New Orleans from Los Angeles, told me she got accosted by some kid with a gun who looked scare and was probably doing it for gang initiation...apparently the kid bitched out and ran away

this is her. She's SJW but thankfully wasn't the sanctimonious, bitter, negative kind . I didn't talk politics with her though, but I'm sure she assumed I was on the left given the fact that I'm from NYC and nonwhite

I didn't even know New Orleans had these types, but go figure

Making mexico pay for it is a bit of a stretch, but damn, 5 cents?

20 cents? Kim already invited Trump to North Korea next month.

I am going to put so much money on that second one, damn dude.

Such easy money, you can skim a lot of shit from people who don't know their shit about politics.

Low chance of happening but I mean yes is way undervalued

AFAIK the toursty areas of New Orleans are basically the only place in Louisiana with hardcore SJWs

The rest of the SJWs generally just move out.

I noticed while I was involved iwth the Hamsteak fandom and such as a teen that Louisiana has a surprising level of SJW infiltration however

What

@FLanon PredictIt is full of DailyKos tier leftists

a while back, they were circlejerking about how Blankenship would win the primary and grant an easy win to Manchin because of dumb rednecks

Well, I'm just glad there's a way to make bank off of leftists being brain-dead.

I made a decent amount off of Jon Ossoff losing. Lost $20 on Le Pen. Bet pocket change on Moore. (those were for fun, basically)
