Doing your civic duty

Notice there’s more mud-slinging than usual on the tv lately? That’s because Louisiana’s Election Day is Saturday, October 20th.

Whether you’re a resident of New Orleans, Jefferson parish or somewhere beyond the Lake, use this website (http://69.2.40.209/) from the Louisiana Secretary of State to find your polling place. Once you’ve found your polling place you can call up a sample ballot. Absentee in person voting is 14-7 days before the actual election.
