Seems like a lot of voting accidents are happening lately. I hope the person injured recovers.

They sure happened a lot in the last two elections and I'm sure will happen more in the next couple of weeks.

Damn auto correct! I completely agree though. I promise there will be no "voting" accident when I'm in the booth!

He was in a flats boat and coming back in to Hebert's
They were talking to each other and when looked up they were about to hit one of the bouys on Brad Vincent reef so guy swerved hard and threw other guy out boat and prob hit his leg . He was chopped good on the leg from what we could see
.
Not sure how bad it really was because medics covered him up when they pulled up to Hebert's
