Louisiana has a population of roughly 4.6 million people
2,970,167 are registered to vote
Unofficial returns indicated statewide turnout of registered voters in the Governor’s race, last night, was 35.8%
Republican Jeff Landry won the Governor’s race with 547,828 votes
If you divide the state population by how many votes Landry got, 11% of the states population chose Landry to be the next Governor
If you divide the number of votes Landry got by the number of registered voters, 18% of the registered voters elected the next Governor
Don’t vote? Don’t complain.

Today in 1946 WWII veteran Maceo Snipes was shot in his back by the KKK the day after he became the first Black person to cast a vote in Taylor County, Georgia.
After he was shot, Mr. Snipes walked three miles to the hospital with his mother. For six hours doctors left him waiting and bleeding. By the time he was seen, he needed a blood transfusion. The doctors said the hospital had no “black blood.” Snipes died two days later.
This is why I will vote in every election. The day I stop voting is the day I stop breathing. #FreshVotesBlue #BlackHistoryWithLana
This is such an important world view. If everyone understood and practiced this, we would be in a much better place. #indigenousknowledge#indigenous#Native
@scdhec This is very disappointing. Your data dashboard has helped my family determine our protocols for avoiding Covid. We expand and contract with local transmission rates. Hospitalizations and death lag behind surges. BA2 is coming, but we won’t know until it’s too late.
Authentic assessment is central to a teacher’s crafting of a curriculum that can accommodate different learning styles and, in these COVID times, adjust for any perceived learning loss.

We went camping just 20 minutes outside of Charleston this weekend at Woodlands Nature Reserve, hosted by zunhospitality. It was a bit chilly, but so cozy in the tent cabins! 🌳🌳🌳
