Louisiana Democrats Target Black Voters Via Radio

Democrats target black voters on radio Blacks, women hold key to who gets into the gubernatorial runoff, analysts say John Hill Posted on October 3, 2003

BATON ROUGE - Democratic candidates for governor of Louisiana are slugging it out on black radio, targeting the 29 percent of the state's electorate who likely will decide who comes out a winner in Saturday's primary.

"Anybody who can get a sizable portion of the black vote and put it together with white (votes that) he or she can get is on the way to the runoff," Southern University political scientist Frank Ransburg said.


TOPICS: Politics/Elections
KEYWORDS: blacks; blanco; democrats; ewing; governor; ieyoub; jindal; la; leach; oct4; primary
Apparently, the more conservative Blanco would more easily defeat Jindal in November than could the more liberal popular Attorney General Ieyoub. It does though seem that a Republican will be a general election candidate, something that was most doubtful two months ago.

Black conservative ping

If you want on (or off) of my black conservative ping list, please let me know via FREEPmail. (And no, you don't have to be black to be on the list!)

Extra warning: this is a high-volume ping list.

[As i mentioned, the B/C & JD! lists are going to float into and out of whack over the forseeable future, while I try to cobble a rig back together for myself. My apologies for any incovenience or misunderstandings in this time frame. New signups/removals may be flaky in this time-frame as well; please bear with me, and keep in mind you may have to FReepmail me more than once for me to get it done. Thanks again!]

You can bet that clinocchio has prerecorded a lying phone call that will tellBlacks that if they don't vote for a rat, they will be put in prison by the "EVIL REPUBLICAN" Jindal. He did something like that to get lil mary reelected.
