Desiree Charbonnet trails LaToya Cantell in money, endorsements, poll, but 8 days to go
Written by Stephen Sabludowsky
The New Orleans Mayor’s race runoff is now eight days away. Lots can happen between now and then. But here are some quick observations, and some relevant tweets worth reviewing.

Cantrell tops Charbonnet in cash, rebuffs Black Ministers in New Orleans Mayor's Race
Media Sources
Now, for a New Orleans Mayor’s Race wrap:
LaToya Cantrell has become the money machine, not so, Desiree Charbonnet. The Inter-Denominational Ministerial Alliance, who already supported Desiree Charbonnet has injected itself into the race again, calling for Cantrell’s resignation, which prompted her quick rebuke. Also, a date has been set for the WWL TV forum, two days from election day.
Charbonnet milking Cantrell's credit card cow in New Orleans Mayor's race
Written by Stephen Sabludowsky
The old famous adage, “money is the mother’s milk of politics” might be also said, “milking a scandal is the "mother" of all political campaign tactics”.
No doubt, the Desiree Charbonnet campaign is in "udder" "spread the Latoya Cantrell credit card controversy mode. Just how much mileage and bad press it can get from it before New Orleans Mayor's Race election day, is a topic for serious discussion. Or, better said--will voters leave home and vote for Cantrell, without it (being top of mind)?

New Orleans Saints, Bucs--Angel, Demon, taking a knee with grace
Written by JimWMiller
If you watched the Saints’ game on Sunday, you were privy to a rare 3-minute segment that brought out the angels and the demons among NFL players, as well as a group kneel-down that, instead of a protest, revealed players' No. 1 fear.
New Orleans Saints, not Wells, being divisive with Anthem-kneeling protests
Written by Jeff Crouere
The New Orleans Saints have a wonderful 50-year relationship with long-suffering fans that have supported the team through mostly losing seasons. Unfortunately, the team is putting that relationship in jeopardy with their asinine position on the National Anthem controversy.
For some unknown reason, the Saints have decided to support the right of disgruntled players to kneel or sit either before or during the playing of the National Anthem. In week 3, it was ten players who sat and since that time multiple players have been kneeling before the National Anthem is played and then standing for the Star-Spangled Banner.
Chocolate City, New Orleans Mayor's Race, gentrification and AirBnB
Written by Bayoubuzz Staff
While the New Orleans Mayor's race has focused on personality flaws, corruption, one of the issues that has really yet to surface in the public debate is "gentrification".
Charbonnet slams Cantrell, releases NOLA's credit card agreement, policies--claim theft
Written by Stephen Sabludowsky
The Desiree Charbonnet for Mayor of New Orleans campaign has just shot another city credit card broadside to the LaToya Cantrell for Mayor campaign today with a press release, claiming that the Councilwoman Cantrell has "even more questions to answer" today as it claims "a large number of specific violations".
New Orleans Mayor's Race--Charbonnet vs. Cantrell: Getting social, lethargic
Written by Stephen SabludowskyHas the political issue of the moment in the New Orleans Mayor’s race moved from the attacks against Desiree Charbonnet to those now against LaToya Cantrell?
Up until last week, before the New Orleans credit card reimbursement became a story, Charbonnet was the clear underdog, down by nine points from the primary election. However, since the story went public, much, if not most of the conversation has centered upon Cantrell and not Charbonnet, and much of it is negative.

Cantrell’s credit card fuss could result in Charbonnet's middle-class black, white vote turnout
Written by Stephen Sabludowsky
How might LaToya Cantrell’s recent New Orleans credit card flap translate into Desiree Charbonnet get more of the middle-class black and the conservative white voter support that went to other candidates, particularly, Judge Michael Bagneris and Troy Henry in the New Orleans Mayor’s race primary?
Discuss-New Orleans Mayor's Race; Cantrell's credit card flap, Charbonnet's obstacles, at 4 today
Written by Stephen Sabludowsky
Indeed, the New Orleans Mayor’s race just got a lot more interesting.
The issue is—not whether the city’s education system is adequate, or how to improve our economic development deficiencies or whether we have money for pumping water.
No. Right now, for one candidate who is now running commercials--the focus should be on credit cards, belated payments for personal expenses and potential violations of law.
Louisiana Treasurer Race: Derrick Edwards does have Chinaman's chance to beat Schroder, IF
Written by Stephen Sabludowsky
Does Derrick Edwards have a Chinaman’s chance of winning the Louisiana Treasurer’s race?
Conventional wisdom says, no way. Not a Chinaman, not an Englishman, only, a “no-way man” chance of prevailing.
The top Louisiana politicos and pollsters in Louisiana pretty much agree.
In a series of online Facebook Live interviews, post-election, with Dr. Ed Chervenak, Bernie Pinsonat, Jeff Crouere, Jim Brown, John Couvillon, none of them have felt there was any possible scenario to victory.
