If that isn't enough to get you motivated: The other candidate is Jay Batt.



Above from Anybody But Batt .com

Jay Batt, failed former Council member who refused to take being on the council as a full time job and was known for his dubious dealings when he did show up.

Jay Batt, who rammed through pet projects of special interests contrary to the best interests and expressed preferences of locals, sometimes against the unanimous votes of neighborhood organizations.

This one isn't about Republican and Democrat. (New Orleans City Council members don't get to vote on the big national issues.) It's about continuing the New Orleans reform efforts or going back to the worst of the Pre-K "business as usual".

New Orleans needs to go forward, not Battwards.

If you're undecided, please take time to inform yourself, google web, news, and blog posts about the candidates.
