Then, we switched races to the Division 2 seat. We spoke with Pastor Gregory Manning, who is challenging incumbent JP Morrell. We talked to Manning about why he chose to challenge a well-known name, utility regulation, and his background in theater (no, actually!).

We also talked to perennial candidate Matt Hill. You probably know him as the guy with the SWB logo inside a red "no" sign. He talked about his unique plan to break up Entergy New Orleans, his early childhood in El Salvador, and why he keeps running for office.

We also talked to State Rep. Matt Willard, who is also running for the Division 1 seat on City Council. We discussed Sewerage and Water Board, potholes, and what it's like working with so many Republicans in Baton Rouge.

Here is our interview with State Rep. Delisha Boyd. Yes, we asked about that $39,000 her campaign paid to a firm she owns with her daughter. Also learned about why she's running for office, how she thinks about land use, and how her grandma helped change her life.

This is what I’ve been reporting on for months. Agencies are taking money and repurposing it against Congressional instructions, and there’s no way to know what they are taking the money from or what they are using it for.
