Lafourche Parish Council appoints interim constable for Raceland area
LeBouef was the husband of incumbent Dwain LeBouef, who died March 20.
Constables serve eviction notices and paperwork for small claims. They serve as the officer for the justice of the peace court, in this case in Lafourche s District 2.
Holly LeBouef was arrested in 2017 after police said she stole tens of thousands of dollars from the National Barrel Horse Association while serving as the local district president. The charges are still pending, according to the Lafourche District Attorney s Office.
She also ran for the District 5 Parish Council seat in 2016, losing to James Bourgeois by a 57-43 margin.
Early voting begins Saturday for Lafourche elections
Early voting begins Saturday in a runoff election for a vacant Lafourche Parish Council seat and a property tax proposal in Lockport.
Early voting in the April 24 election will run from 8:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday through April 17, except Sunday, at three sites in Lafourche:
► Lafourche Registrar of Voters Office, 307 W. Fourth St.; Thibodaux.
► Mathews Government Complex, 4876 La. 1.
► South Lafourche Library, 16241 E. Main St., Galliano.
There are no ballot items in Terrebonne.
Because none of the three candidates received more than 50% of the vote in the March 20 special council election, Raceland Democrat Terry Arabie will face off against Gheens resident Spence Cressionie, who is affiliated with no political party, in the runoff.
