| Description | A couple of Louisiana’s most popular sheriffs are unhappy that the state Republican Party is considering ways to formally censure officials who go against the party line in major elections.
Jefferson Parish Sheriff Newell Normand and St. Tammany Parish Sheriff Jack Strain feel they are the target of the criticism for their endorsements of Senator Mary Landrieu in the upcoming election over Republican candidate John Kennedy.
“When I became a Republican, I did not know that meant there was a blood oath to the Republican Party and that other people would decide for me who was best for the job,” said Normand Monday. |
