Lagniappe from LSU-S student's City Council announcement

Folks were probably expecting some follow up from Mayor Cedric Glover' re-election party last night. Unfortunately I couldn't attend because of a death in my family.

But I did want to offer a little from Tuesday's City Council announcement gathering for LSU-S student Deanna Candler. It was at Catina Laredo on Youree Drive. She works there.

A possible alliance worth noting: fellow Republican Ron Webb attended.

Candler is the second announced candidate for Bryan Wooley's District D seat. Michael Corbin is the other.

Videos for your viewing pleasure -- or at least to ponder

Here are two videos from YouTube to hold you over until we start having some debates for the Shreveport mayor's race. (Of course there is always a chance we can catch a few precursors to the real thing during City Council meetings.)

The more recent one is from Councilman Bryan Wooley's April 22 campaign kick off event.

This video is from Mayor Cedric Glover's 2006 campaign.

Wooley's vid is more than three minutes long. Here are some folks I spotted in it: Lou Burnett, Bruce Roberts, Sheva Sims, Charlie Caldwell, Harold Coates, Deanna Candler, Robert "SuperMann" Blount, Michael Corbin and Archie Hall.

Glover's is only about a minute, so I didn't see as many people that I recognized: Jeff Everson, Elizabeth Glover, Veronic Glover and Winzer Andrews.

Check out both, and tell me what you think. I haven't seen anything from state Rep. Roy Burrell, who said he will announce his plans to seek the mayor's seat soon.
