Dr. Brian Salvatore of LSUS on the environment, education policy, and why he is challenging Alan Seabaugh.
Leslie Bourque isn’t only a first-time candidate; she is also the first person to ever challenge Stuart Bishop, the two-term incumbent and the author of the recently defeated “Pollution Secrecy Act.”
Some people call him Maurice, but that’s not his name any more.
Henry Walther, the President of the College Democrats of Louisiana, gave a gutsy and compelling speech at the annual True Blue Gala, but unfortunately, because someone forgot to plug in an amplifier, only half the room actually heard it. In Part One, we discuss what it means to him to be a Louisiana Democrat.
After finishing second in her long-shot bid for Congress against Steve Scalise, Tammy Savoie has her sights. Plus, Lamar reads dozens of Louisiana surnames spelled the same way but pronounced at least two different ways.
After spending much of his career as a public school teacher in Texas, Creighton Wilson is back home in Webster Parish and ready to apply the lessons he learned as a member of the state House of Representatives.
Meet Dr. Beverly Brooks Thompson (SD-16), who is running against two right-ring ideologues with hopes of replacing state Sen. Dan Claitor.
Meet Morgan Lamandre, a candidate for Louisiana House District 66, who has one of the best stories of the year about Louisiana politics.
A conversation with Dr. Belinda Davis, a political science professor, who is currently a candidate for Louisiana House District 70 in Baton Rouge.
An interview with former congressional candidate Jim Francis about the influence of LABI and the ways in which corporate tax giveaways weaken, rather than strengthen, the state’s economy.
Dr. Meek responds in detail to questions about his decision to resign in protest from Louisiana College.
In the second half of my conversation with Rob Anderson, we discussed his opinions on some of the most controversial and often politically divisive issues that too often frame our national conversation. But first, we talk about the Overton Window as it applies to a certain Congressman who live-streamed his trip to the most notorious death camp in human history.
Lamar talks with Rob Anderson, former and perhaps future candidate for Louisiana’s 3rd Congressional District.
