"NEW ORLEANS (AP) -- Mayor Ray Nagin, whose shoot-from-the-hip style was both praised and scorned after Hurricane Katrina, narrowly won re-election over Lt. Gov. Mitch Landrieu on Saturday in the race to oversee one of the biggest rebuilding projects in U.S. history.
With 84 percent of precincts reporting, Nagin had 52.7 percent, or 51,885 votes, to Landrieu's 47.3 percent, or 46,625 votes."
Whoohoo! Just in time for Hurricane Season!
Get on the Bus!
