New Orleans has not been majority white for decades, but it is quite possible that a majority of those who are able to vote in the upcoming election will be white. Thus the decisions about the future of New Orleans are poised to be made by those who have been able to get back and will exclude many of those still evacuated. Guess what type of plans they will have for New Orleans?
That problem is being worked on. The displaced people should still be able to vote on what affects their homes and neighborhoods. Those fortunate enough or wealthy enough to be there should not be the ones to make all the decisions without the rest having a say.
