Going Gay!

Louisiana’s moving up in the gay world: “The victories of two openly gay school board candidates in Louisiana mark the election of the state’s first two openly gay elected officials. Victory endorsee Thomas Robichaux and Seth Bloom both won their elections to the Orleans Parish School Board. The wins effectively remove Louisiana from the Victory Fund’s “Horizon State” list — a list of states that lack any elected LGBT representation. That list now includes Alaska, North Dakota, South Dakota and South Carolina.” [Gay Politics]
