On October 6th, Bike Baton Rouge sent an email to Baton Rouge's Mayoral Candidates asking them five questions on how their administration would work to improve bicycling conditions in Baton Rouge. This was followed by publishing that letter on our website and asking those candidates to complete the questionnaire via their social media accounts. A similar process began for Metro Council candidates on October 13th.
Below are the responses that we received from those candidates.
Bike Baton Rouge is a 501(c)3 Non-Profit Organization and as such makes no endorsement of any candidates. All responses are provided for informational purposes for our members and the public to make their own voting decisions.
