Election Day is Tuesday, three Congressional races on the ballot.
Three Congressional races feature the contest to succeed the incumbent Senator who failed to make a primary runoff. Bill Cassidy, having angered President Donald Trump, finished out of the runoff which pitted the ultimate Republican candidate, Julie Letlow, who bested current Treasurer John Fleming by a healthy margin.
Currently occupying the 5th District seat in the House of Representatives, Letlow faces Jamie Harris for the Senate seat.
US Senate:
- Jamie Harris-D
- Julia Letlow-R
U. S. Representative — 2nd Congressional District:
Incumbent, and prohibitive favorite Troy Carter is set to face four opponents, none of whom is a Republican.
- Lisa Ballay (LBT)
- Walter “Rocky” Beach (NOPTY)
- Troy A. Carter, Sr. (DEM)
- Renada “Honey” Collins (NOPTY)
- Peter Williams (REP)
U. S. Representative — 6th Congressional District:
This one seems wide open and likely to be settled in a December runoff. Back and forth went the district’s configuration, gerrymandered to eliminate Cleo Fields’ seat which had been conferred upon him by redrawing a majority minority seat for the 2022 vote. Ten names on the ballot (six Republicans, three Democrats and a Libertarian), this one will be settled on December 12.
- Monique Appeaning (REP)
- Chauna Banks (DEM)
- Rufus Craig (LBT)
- Larry Davis III (REP)
- “Rick” Edmonds (REP)
- Patrick “Pat” Forbes (DEM)
- Lindsay “Rubia” Garcia (DEM)
- Michael Mebruer (REP)
- Blake Miguez (REP)
- Stephen Wagley (REP)
