10.13.2023 #RolandMartinUnfiltered: Louisiana's Primary Election, Contentious Georgia Voting Law Stands, Texas Man's Arrest Thrown Out

Louisianaians will head to the polls in just under 20 hours to vote to replace term-limited Democratic Governor John Bel Edwards in tomorrow's primary election.  The early votes, especially the black vote, are looking dismal.  Activist Gary Chambers will be here to discuss the numbers. 

A federal judge in Georgia has declined to block several provisions of S.B. 202, a sweeping election law, while legal challenges play out.  An attorney from ALCU Georgia will be here to explain the judge's ruling. 

The Baltimore Police made an arrest in this month's shooting at Morgan State University but still need your help finding the second suspect. 

For the second time in three days, the republican party has a nominee for the Speaker.  After losing earlier this week, House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan will find it hard to secure the votes needed to get that gavel. 

And we have an update to an RMU exclusive.  The Black Texas man who was tased by police after having a seizure got his arrest thrown out.  His attorneys will be here to explain what that means for his criminal case and the federal lawsuit he filed.
