re: Edwards in Good Shape

Edwards previously hired Arceneaux for the 2015 election runoff against then-Sen. David Vitter (R-LA)
So Arceneaux was successful in 2015. This isn't North Carolina....

re: A vote for Jon Bel Edwards is a vote for Clinton, Landrieu, Pelosi, Schumer, Adam Schiff

I'm disagree. A vote for either candidate is a vote for Louisiana Governor. This isn't an election for Congress or the Presidency. Although listening to Rispone, he thinks that is what his race is for. :rotflmao:...

Edwards in Good Shape
Posted by LSUgrad1998 on 11/13/19 at 2:34 pm
[quote]Edwards must be feeling pretty good about his chances at becoming the first Democrat governor in Louisiana to serve two consecutive terms since Edwin Edwards did it from 1972-1980. At least he should in light of the massive turnout among black voters during early voting. When early voting cam...

Yeah but those living in condos, apts, and government housing pay NO property taxes. A sales tax is more fair across the board....

Sorry I didn't explain it properly. It's a break on taxes to the first 75K value of their home. ...

The secrecy now won't bode well later when asking voters to ratify any changes. No way voters will pass changes to the homestead exemption. There are to many homeowners and elderly on fixed incomes that need/want that tax break given on the first 75K value of their home" currently on the books. So...

Trading state taxes for taxes at the parish level is still TAXES. It's semantics. As governor I lowered your state taxes, but it was your local government that kept them or increased them. If you want to cut taxes then let's really cut them, and services. Just state what taxes and services are on ...

Posted by LSUgrad1998 on 11/13/19 at 10:48 am
I would agree with that. The problem I have is with Rispone's silence. Let the citizens of Louisiana know specifically which areas of the Constitution do you support changing, and what changes will you advocate, then let them decide if they wish to elect you as governor or not. What areas of the ...

Amendments/changes to the constitution have been on-going since the 1970's. Nearly every election year, voters are asked to approve numerous amendments to the constitution. To imply that all changes were made in the 1970's is disingenuous. ...
re: Is it a lie that Rispone wants to get rid of the homestead exemption????
Posted by LSUgrad1998 on 11/13/19 at 9:36 am
That is true. But again Rispone wishes to make changes to areas that were approved by voters already as amendments to protect such areas. ...
re: Is it a lie that Rispone wants to get rid of the homestead exemption????
Posted by LSUgrad1998 on 11/13/19 at 9:24 am
You make a valid point. The reason Rispone wants a constitutional convention, is he doesn't want to put forth any new changes as amendments because that requires an election thus allowing voters to decide proposed changes. Here just he and the legislature can undo what voters have already passed as...

I'd prefer seeing an elimination of all property taxes except on businesses, and move to sales/use taxes. Sales/Use taxes are more fairer, in that everyone shares in paying taxes. Those living in government housing, assisted living centers, etc. would still pay the tax with purchases made. The sta...

Posted by LSUgrad1998 on 11/13/19 at 9:10 am
It's speculation because Rispone won't speak to the issue. Silence is Golden they say. He could easily today, state I will not change the homestead exemption during a constitutional convention. He hasn't and wont.
Why do you think the Sheriff's Association has endorsed JBE? Here's why below? And...

Posted by LSUgrad1998 on 11/13/19 at 8:32 am
Yes. His plan is to turn control of the homestead exemption to your local parish. Then your parish police jury will decide whether to reduce or eliminate the exemption. They can't legally increase it above the 75K. So what would your parish do? Reducing it allows for more local taxes, but allows...
