Go vote 

I'll have a political post later today explaining further and prognosticating. But I got to go vote, and drive around and observe the carnival/political/whodat milieu. And pay my respects.

I'm voting for Mitch Landrieu for Mayor, but I very nearly decided for James Perry. I'll explain more about that later, because Perry has been an instructive example. For now, I'll just say Perry's campaign made some errors and he should've perhaps tried for City Council. More analysis on that later.

CC at large: Arnie Fielgood and Nolan Marshall (yes, I've factored this in, BSJD).

CC Preferences (some of these are somewhat by default)

District A: Susan Guidry
District B: Stacy Head (how she balances 30 Rock with her Council duties, I'll never know)
District C: Kristin Palmer
District D: Cynthia Hedge Morrell
District E: (I honestly didn't study Austin Badon's competition, sorry)

All those renewals of "security district" taxes: NO!

Sheriff: I can't stomach voting for Marlin Gusman again. Can't do it. Won't do it. He doesn't deserve it. Interview with his opposition, who is as unpolished as Gusman is oily, here.

State Senate: Karen Carter Peterson, and let me remind everyone that I miss Cheryl Gray immensely.

Assessor: JANIS LEMLE-- strong endorsement.

Coroner and Clerk of Court-- write in Manny Chevrolet Bruno

My finger literally hovered over Manny for a good 5 second before I went and pressed on Perry. I don't mind Landrieu winning but I couldn't bring myself to vote for a big political family.

I left the judges, sheriff, and coroner blank on my ballot. The write in is what I should have done.
