Good Grades For Blanco In Louisiana

/noticias.info/ (Angus Reid - CPOD Global Scan) – Many adults in Louisiana are satisfied with Kathleen Blanco, according to a poll by Loyola University published in the Baton-Rouge Advocate. 69 per cent of respondents gave the governor’s performance a grade of A or B.

Blanco—a Democrat—won the November 2003 run-off over Republican Bobby Jindal with 52 per cent of the vote. Blanco and Jindal were the top two candidates in a previous "open" contest, where several candidates registered regardless of party allegiance. Blanco became the state’s first female head of government.

During her first year in office, Blanco proposed an overhaul to the state’s health care system and issued an executive order that bars state agencies and contractors from incurring in discriminatory practices.
