No. If you registered somewhere else you have forfeited your residency in New Orleans.  Good luck in your new location!

If you voted in the last presidential election then you are still registered. If you continue to vote in all pres elections you will always be registered and will not need to do it again unless you move.

hello, i am from louisiana, 30 minutes south of new orleans. i am not exactly sure what the answer is. you are probably talking about the 9th ward (which is one of the hardest hit areas), it is not one of the best neighborhoods and that could be why they do not want to rebuild. i heard something about it becomming a rich neighborhood. but honestly who would want to rebuild there. the entire area is protected by a levee. the other area that was hard hit was chalmette, the entire parish flooded and the water was up to the roofs of the homes. i personally would not live in an area protected by a levee. also i am sure that most of the people in the 9th ward area can not afford to rebuild. the insurance companies aren't exactly being fair. i hope i helped you understand a little bit better, if not feel free to contact me.

I am beginning to understand that illegal aliens vote, too.  I think we need to check voter eligibility at least after the fact.  The addresses are there, too, so we should be able to find offenders.\n\nIt is interesting that it is always the Democrats that block requirements for proof of citizenship for voters.  Long, long ago elderly shut ins might not have had ID.  However, I don't think anyone can get by with no ID anymore, if only for Medicaid. Citizenship is no harder to prove than getting any other ID.\n\nWe could certainly pass a law requiring proof of citizenship for everyone under the age of 70, or something, if this is really seen as a problem.  However, no one says you shouldn't have to prove insurance eligibility with an insurance card, so why should you not have to prove eligibility to vote?\n\nLiving in Southern California, this is a real concern for me.

Because New Orleans is an issue Republicans can not spin enough to make themselves look better than the Dem's. They can with immigration, that's what all the fuss is about. The elections are coming up.. Neither problem will really be fixed..

Yes. You can just vote for part of the ballot.

Not sure, but I know it can happen because we found  out just recently when researching our family tree and other archives that our grandmother who had passed away 20 years ago has been actively register as a democrat  ( of course) and voted as a democrat in all the major elections up to 2004.  How this happened and how my deceased grandmother ever became registered as a democrat and is recorded as voting for democrats when she is dead is first-hand proof to me of the chicanery of the democrats in elections.

Unfortunately, because of the way the Electoral College works, Puerto Ricans, who are US citizens, do not have the right to participate in the election of the President of the United States if they reside in Puerto Rico.  The Constitution specifies that only states (and DC) can participate in the presidential election by choosing "electors" who are part of the Electoral College.\n\nA number of people from Puerto Rico have tried to sue the US Government to force it to recognize the right of the American citizens to participate in the presidential election.  These efforts have ultimately been unsuccessful.\n\nHowever, in 2000 there was a glimmer of hope for the American citizens who reside in Puerto Rico.  The US District Court for the District of Puerto Rico issued judgement on August stating that Puerto Rico had the right to participate in the Electoral College, as long as the state legislature approved a method.  The state legislature approved a law for the election of presidential electors from Puerto Rico, to be held together with the general election on November 7, 2000.\nThe ballots were printed (with Bush & Gore's names and pictures), and mailed out to absentee voters.  Unfortunately, just before the election, the US Court of Appeals for the First Circuit reversed the judgement of the District Court, and the state Supreme Court invalidated the local law.  Therefore, the American residents of Puerto Rico could not participate in the 2000 presidential election.\n\nA few (around 100 absentee voters) people actually cast their presidential ballots, but we will never know how they voted.

There are a couple of theories:\n\n1.) All the political analysts were saying that voting for Nagin would be like a turkey voting for thanksgiving. The voters got confused with the message and thought they were voting for a turkey each, not a turkey to run their city.\n\n2.) The Katrina refugees are having the best time of their lives in other states. With Nagin in charge it will be years before enough of New Orleans is rebuilt and they will have to go back.\n\n3.) The voters held their breath too long during Katrina.

The first answer must not have read the whole question.  The link below is the Unofficial Results on the Louisiana Secretary of State's website.  The official results should be available in a week or two.  They have to finish counting provisional and absentee ballots

They would not vote as part of separating themselves. They do not join the military but the were conscripeted in WWII and served in civilian positions and not in the military. Some do use  electricity in certain circumstances.

Minnesota, a registered voter can vouch for a non registered persons resident status. I.D. is not required if you are registered, you just tell the old person your name and they ask you if the address on the record is correct, if it is you sign your name on the line & vote

Are you registered to vote in your new area?  If not, you will be allowed to vote in your old hometown.  Make sure you are (or aren't) before you go to vote. \n\nIf you are, where you vote depends on which ward you live in. Each person who lives in that ward will be told to vote at a particular location. \n\nI believe the Board of Elections for your county can help you find out where to report to vote.

The people that lived in New Orleans voted down - Multiple times- raising money/taxes to upgrade the levees. They were stupid to not improve their defenses when a huge section of the city was below sea level.

I was in New Orleans the day before Hurricane Katrina hit. When we were evacuating the city we passed by very poor neighborhoods. Most of the people living in those neighborhoods were African American. They were sitting on the porches waving to us. I asked my boyfriend why they weren't leaving and he said they didn't have enough money for gas, food, hotel etc.. I don't think its the entire black race that feels this way about it. Just those in New Orleans who did not have enough money to evacuate.

Did they leave when they were done?  \nthen good, they are not illegal, they are Mexican citizens living in Mexico.  Good for them.  Why didn't they take the illegal aliens who are working in New Orleans back with them?
