It's Not Too Late to Vote

Posted by on Sat, Jul 19, 2008 at 6:39 PM

Don't forget that there's an election today. New Orleans voters will decide on four property millages that produce $32 million annually for our public schools. Voting "yes" doesn't mean an increase in your property taxes, but it does mean that valuable funding for schools will be preserved. For more on what these funds accomplish, check out Gambit Weekly's commentary, "Vote FOR Public Schools."So please take a couple of minutes to stop by your local polling place, and push that "for" button four times for public schools.
