Ils Sont Parti! NOLAFUGEES EXCLUSIVE CAMPAIGN COVERAGE

Dscn1168They say this is the most important election in the four-hundred year history of the city, that we have only one shot, and that the margin for error is zero.

NOLAFugees exclusive 2006 New Orleans Mayoral coverage includes interviews with 9 mayoral candidates, and we feel nine out of 23 isn't bad.

NOLAFugees.com has chosen not to endorse any particular candidate in the primary; instead we decided to make new T-shirts. However, society columnist Cookie makes his personal endorsement official, Senior Editor Joe Longo covers the debates, and political analyst and handicapper Jack Moss lays out the late line for the NOLAFugees Grade III Mayoral Stakes @ Handsome Willy's, 7:30 p.m. Saturday, April 22.

All this and more in Ils Sont Parti! NOLAFugees 2006 New Orleans Mayoral Stakes (G3).
