CBC News on Tuesday spoke withChicoine's lawyer, Alexander HerrickDuggan from the Montreal law firm of Duggan Avocats, who said his clientrejects the accusations against him.

"He [Chicoine] bent over backwards to help and accommodate the plaintiff, Ms. Ferro, who then maliciously attacked and defamed him in an abusive and meritless lawsuit."

NEW ORLEANS, LA (WVUE) -

Candidates in next year's governor's race have already begun making their pitch with 10 months to go. Most have already set up websites, and the lone Democrat is trying to gain name recognition in New Orleans.

"I do think we have a series of candidates who can raise millions of dollars each and have a base of voters already," said Tulane political analyst Mike Sherman.

Public Service Commissioner Scott Angelle, Lt. Gov. Jay Dardenne, Sen. David Vitter, and State Rep. John Bel Edwards of Amite are all trying to build voter support.

"The only two I'm familiar with are Dardenne and Vitter," said New Orleans voter Andy Mayeaux.

"You can pick the guy to beat based on two things - who has most funds, and name recognition. David Vitter has been elected statewide, has significant funds and statewide name recognition," said Sherman.

To become better known, Bel Edwards bought expensive billboards in New Orleans.

"Before you can share a message, you have to let them know who you are, and that starts with name recognition," said Sherman.

Also being mentioned as a possible fifth candidate is Angola prison warden Burl Cain, who has a Facebook page to get his message out.

"I think one of the biggest issues is Common Core, which i'm not real crazy about," said Mayeaux.
