Katrina Coverage

From this:

Louisiana voters could vote in special out-of-state voting precincts under a plan suggested by Secretary of State Al Ater. Ater said he probably will ask a special session of the Legislature to give him the authority to open such out-of-state precincts if large clusters of Louisiana voters are living in those areas and still want to vote in Louisiana elections.

Ater told a special House-Senate panel looking at long-term revitalization and recovery from Hurricane Katrina and Hurricane Rita that there are more than 300,000 voters who are now out of their normal precincts and "dispersed all throughout America."
