So I was curious to know if the Justice of the Peace who refused an interracial marriage was a Democrat or a Republican. See, Louisiana being a Southern state, many people had some preconceived notions about how he represented the racist Republican party.
So, like the good truth seeker I am, I did some digging. Turns out that those calling him representative of racist Republican ideals are only partially correct. Turns out that up until 2008, he ran as a…
