Jeffrey D. Sadow is an associate professor of political science at Louisiana State University Shreveport.

This publishes five days weekly with the exception of 7 holidays. Also check out his Louisiana Legislature Log especially during legislative sessions (in "Louisiana Politics Blog Roll" below).
