Everything about Edmund Reggie totally explained
Edmund M. Reggie (born
1926) is a
Democratic politician and former city
judge from
Louisiana. Reggie is originally from the rice-growing city of
Crowley, the seat of
Acadia Parish, but resides in
Lafayette. He still maintains the record of being the youngest person to serve as a judge in American history.
Reggie was a confidant of imprisoned former
Governor Edwin Washington Edwards, who also began his political career in Crowley.
In
1960, Reggie was a successful Democratic elector for the
John F. Kennedy-
Lyndon B. Johnson ticket in Louisiana. He infuriated the Louisiana Democratic Party at the 1956 Democratic Convention when he switched his vote from
Adlai Stevenson to the young John F. Kennedy, whom Reggie shrewdly recognized as a coming force in US politics. Reggie thereby established a tie between the Kennedys, and Crowley & Lafayette that exists to this day: Reggie is the father-in-law of
U.S. Senator Edward M. Kennedy of
Massachusetts, who is married to his daughter, Victoria. He is also related to
Charles Boustany, Republican Congressman of Lafayette, representing the Seventh Louisiana Congressional District.
Reggie is an inductee of the Louisiana Political Museum and Hall of Fame in
Winnfield.
