| Info | Johnson, 28, believes he can better represent all the residents of the 98th District, which covers the spectrum of affluent, mid-range and low-income areas, from Uptown to Mid-City to Central City.
An attorney with Johnson & Associates, Johnson also helped manage a barbecue restaurant in Central City, and said he has a greater connection to the community.
"I am the only candidate .¤.¤. who can tell you what's going on on MLK and what's going on on Jefferson Avenue," he said, speaking at a forum hosted by the Alliance for Good Government.
Johnson's top campaign priorities are improving public education, especially encouraging parents to become more involved, and working to reduce the crime rate.
As the youngest candidate, Johnson also said he believes he is "more in touch with the youth" of New Orleans.
Johnson has not raised any money in campaign contributions.
