Candidates for Senate Region 14 sit with WAFB – WAFB

Baton Rouge, La. (WAFB) – We start with Quentin Anthony Anderson, a graduate of the LSU Law Faculty, which has been running for Congress over the past year, raising just over 23.00 votes, and now he is running for his opponent, Cleo Fields left empty.

“The political conclusion and climbing to power, sometimes the area did not get the best representation,” Anderson said.

He said that Baton Rouge could be one of the best cities in America with the right guidance.

“I hope to make people aboard a vision to get a light rail here in Baton Rouge, a true public transport system,” Anderson said. “We are trying to do our best to keep young people ending from South, LSU, BRCC.”

Anderson wanted to separate himself from his opponents, especially when it came to a recent increase in sales tax, for which Larry Selders and Carolyn Hill expressed support.

“If an apple is five dollars and all I have is $ 10, that’s a 50% tax right there,” Anderson said. “If I have $ 1,000, I can barely feel it, so the more money I have less expensive, the less money I have, the more expensive they are. So it is expensive to break and I would not vote to increase the costs of living people when it is already expensive enough. “

Carolyn Hill was not unknown to the eyes of society, “because at the end of the day we all have to work together,” Hill said.

Her fulfillment as a member of Bese Board, with a Master’s degree in social work from LSU, bleeds in her campaign; Her mission: Stop the “brain leakage” from the university system, she calls him the dream initiative: “What is the dream initiative is to identify resources for students who can fight financially or have financial challenges,” said Hill.

Hidden training fees are on her hits list.

“I would like to get into the deep understanding of what these fees are and to remove some of these fees and take some of this pressure from training,” Hill said. “Students should not be able to be admitted to school and not be able to stay.”

She said she always wanted to work through the path.

Larry Seltras, the only Baton Rouge native to the competition, has held a public office since 2019 as a member of the Chamber and is now running for a place in the Senate.

“I created laws,” Selders said. “I made bills. I achieved through party lines. I worked with my kakus and worked with the delegation of Baton Rouge. So, these are the things I did, right now in this camera relative to the camera on the other side. “

Cleo Fields threw his support behind Selders. Nevertheless, he said his experience in the State House was sufficient proof of this competition.

“We will continue to fight for children’s education,” Seltrens said. “Continue to fight for a minimum wage by raising it. They continue to fight for mental health. These are the things that affect everyone and these are the things we need to work on and continue to fight. “

Early voting begins on Saturday, February 1, and election day is February 15th. If necessary, there will be a run -off in March.
