Louisiana GOP Blame Obama More for Katrina Response

A new Public Policy Polling survey finds that Louisiana Republicans aren’t sure whether President Obama or George W. Bush was responsible for the federal government’s “poor” response when levees broke after Hurricane Katrina.

Key finding: 29% of Republican primary voters in Louisiana blamed Obama, who took office in 2009, and 28% blamed Bush, whose term lasted through 2008.

Hurricane Katrina hit on Aug. 29, 2005.
