Nagin emphasized rebuilding efforts and the recent Jazz Festival, and was trolling for votes here. Sun Times:
Nagin said he was in town to remind the estimated 7,000 New Orleans residents who relocated to Chicago after Katrina to vote in the May 20 election; they can do so by fax or absentee ballot.And he was here to listen to what voters had to say about the rebuilding efforts.
"They want to see a city that is updated and upgraded [better than] before Katrina," Nagin said. "They want to see a safer city. They'd like to see some of the neighborhoods come back much stronger."
The Katrina recovery is continuing as a much smaller New Orleans faces a new hurricane season.
