The Tangipahoa Parish Sheriff's Office is apparently miffed that voters rejected a proposed sheriff's office tax on Saturday's ballot.
The agency issued a statement grumbling that they're "understaffed and underfunded," and will continue to be so as a result of the outcome.
The statement read in part: "Sleep tight tonight, Tangipahoa, while just 9 deputies work to protect all 139,000 of you."
The Sheriff's Office Tax was rejected by more than 55 percent of the vote.
