Louisiana early voting is picking up! 🗳️ Through Thursday, 232,000 people have voted early, including 74,000 Black voters. Black voters account for 32% of the statewide early vote, one of the highest shares on record at this point. New Orleans leads with 11,598 Black voters. Baton Rouge is at 9,339, a difference of just 2,259! 858,000 registered Black voters statewide have yet to cast an early ballot. Early voting continues through Tuesday, October 27! Check your parish numbers, text 10 people, and share this report. Let’s keep these numbers climbing! Voting is a group project. Everybody has a part to play! Share if you care 🦾

The Democratic Party needs to get comfortable with a certain kind of ruthlessness.

I was honored to host our annual back-to-school giveaway today with @DeeBoydBroker ! With school starting soon, we were excited to give out free school supplies to the children in our communities so they have the tools they need to thrive academically and start the school year off right. – at New Orleans, LA

An all-time favourite Senator Harris moment, January 31, 2020: Kamala: *giggles and goofs around with Sherrod Brown* Schumer: *glares at her* Kamala: 😳

BREAKING: Susan Collins has also penned a strongly-worded letter to Brett Kavanaugh, forcefully urging him to reconsider overturning Roe. #MEsen
While the investigation of the Biddeford shooting is not yet complete, it raises sufficient critical questions that I spoke with DHS Secretary Mullin last night and urged him to cease all non-urgent vehicle stops.

BREAKING: AG Liz Murrill has been indicted on 16 felony counts, including 8 counts of public intimidation and 8 counts of malfeasance in office. And before the ink was dry, Gov. Landry announced he would pardon her, just another example of Corruption in Louisiana. #LaDemos

This her?
After taking on violent crime and entrenched corruption in New Orleans, it’s no surprise the status quo is looking for ways to stop me. This unprecedented action and the corrupt indictments spawned from it are retaliatory, meritless, and unconstitutional. After confidential information was illegally leaked to members of the press by the grand jury or the improperly appointed, unqualified special prosecutor, there are now indications that the court handcuffed and locked out members of the media—and threatened them with contempt—in clear violation of Louisiana law. It is beyond ironic that the improperly appointed special prosecutor, who called my office and violated the confidentiality of the grand jury proceedings herself, claims protecting confidentiality justified closing the courtroom. And the grand jury that leaked information like a sinking ship hardly seemed concerned about privacy. I will be immediately filing an emergency supervisory writ with the Louisiana Supreme Court. Hopefully this will be sorted out quickly. I will not back down. I will continue enforcing the law, fighting corruption, and doing the job the people of Louisiana elected me to do.

Lock. Her. Up.
🚨 The lawfare continues! The special prosecutor in New Orleans refuses to remove the active warrant for the arrest of the Attorney General, even though the Louisiana Supreme Court has stayed the indictment. I have once again filed an emergency appeal with the Supreme Court.

June 27, 2019. Harris says, explicitly, "I'm going to now direct this at Vice President Biden. I do not believe you are a racist." One week later, Jill Biden said in reference to Harris on a conference call with supporters: "With what he cares about, what he fights for, what he’s committed to, you get up there and call him a racist without basis? Go fuck yourself." Absolutely disgusting behaviour.

I think this is what the kids call “living in somebody’s head rent free.” 😎 #lagov #lalege
Senate votes 28-10 for Rep. Mike Bayham constitutional amendment to limit anyone elected Louisiana governor to two terms, rather than the current system of two concurrent terms. House already has approved. HB225 goes before voters for a decision on the November ballot. #lalege

Deeply grateful for the men and women of the U.S. Military who made the ultimate sacrifice. To defend our freedom and the American way of life. Our nation is forever in your debt.

If Donald Trump tries to confirm a Supreme Court justice in his final two years, Senate Democrats must follow The McConnell Rule™

Thirty-seven strong. One unwavering voice for Louisiana. This is the Louisiana Legislative Black Caucus lawmakers carrying the hopes, histories, and futures of communities that have too often been told to wait their turn. In a political climate where voting rights are under attack, where DEI is being dismantled, and where the very mention of our history is being legislated out of classrooms, this image is more than a portrait. It is a promise. Representation is not symbolic. It is structural. It is the difference between policy done to our communities and policy built with them. The fight continues. And we are ready. #DelishaDelivers #staterepDelishaBoyd #LLBC #votingrights

In Louisiana all hell is breaking loose because of the map redistricting and while Senator Gary Carter’s microphone is cut off intentionally Republican Senator Jay Morris stands up and walks over to some people in the chamber and looks at the black man and says “Shut up boy””
