REDISTRICTING COMMITTEE RESULT SB 121 (R) Sen. Morris moves to floor for full vote. SB 407 (D) Sen. Price fails. *** Recorded this at 4:30am, drove back to station, flipped for top of 5am show. We’ve been here since 2:45pm Tuesday. @WAFB #lalege #lagov

A man testifying against SB 121 was wearing a ‘Trump was wrong about everything’ hat @BlakeMiguezLA - “Actually, you were wrong about everything.” “Oooh, burn,” the man said, followed by an eruption of laughter from the crowd. Needed that laugh in these early hours. #lalege

"Hatred and anger are a great representation for the Democratic Party." - @BlakeMiguezLA Things are chippy at 3:25 a.m. #lalege #lagov

@Joey_D70817 @WAFB That was Friday friend, this is going on right now. Morris indeed said “y’all need to shut up” to executive director of Democrat Party after disruptions from the crowd Friday. wafb.com/2026/05/09/sen…

@LiamCombs3 @WAFB So it wasn't Sen. Morris that said Shut up, it was the other guy... Just as I suspected...

At 1:50am, Chairman Kleinpeter said the committee will be at ease after some outbursts from the crowd and a long line of questioning from Sen. Duplessis to author of Republican-led maps Sen. Morris. Will reconvene shortly #lalege

This is how SB 121 splits East Baton Rouge Parish. #lalege #lagov @WAFB

After hours of public testimony, SB 407 (4-2 map) fails to advance out of Senate & Governmental Affairs committee 4-3, with Sen. Reese absent. #lalege #lagov @WAFB

Redistricting battle continues past midnight with still no vote on either proposal. #lalege @WAFB

Photog’s are the real redistricting hero’s. we love you Rick. #lalege

“Young people are watching.”

Dozens gather outside the Senate redistricting committee ahead of vote on new congressional map proposals. The committee will send proposals to the Senate floor for a future vote. The meeting will begin after the Senate wraps up voting on today’s schedule of bills. wafb.com/2026/05/08/lou…

Interesting Ascension and Tangipahoa parishes are split up in the Dem’s proposal.

Updated 4-2 map proposal in SB 407 by Sen. Ed Price. #lalege @WAFB

SGA will only hear Republican map- SB 121 (5-1 map) & Democrat map- SB 407 (4-2 map) today. Other proposals have been deferred. Map wiping away all black majority districts WILL NOT be heard. #lalege

Thunder ⚡️ was just heard in the committee room as Sen Morris takes questions on his 6-0 map that wipes away minority districts. “I think the Lord is trying to tell you something,” he told Sen Barrow. “No, I think He’s talking to you,” she said. #lalege

Within the first few minutes of the redistricting hearing, Sen. Gary Carter started asking Chair Kleinpeter questions about ballots cast before the election was cancelled, to which he could not answer, calling a recess. Sec. State’s office will be here next week to answer #lalege

Protesters gathered at Louisiana's State Capitol demanding lawmakers "shut it down" during today's redistricting hearing. Voices raised outside as debate over the state's congressional maps continues. wafb.com/2026/05/04/new…

Redistricting battle begins in Senate & Governmental Affairs Committee #lalege @WAFB
