Louisiana

Louisiana elections follow a unique jungle primary system where all candidates compete in the same primary on November 8th, and a candidate can win the election outright if they receive a majority of the vote at the primaries. If no candidate receives more than 50% of the vote, the top two candidates, regardless of party affiliation, will advance to the December runoff. The jungle primary will take place on November 8th, 2022.

John Neely Kennedy is a Trump-endorsed Republican candidate who aims to create more jobs, end Obamacare, improve disaster recovery, decrease government spending, prevent immigration, and limit abortion rights nationwide.

Luke Mixon is a moderate democrat and his priorities include addressing inflation, protecting abortion, expanding affordable healthcare, protecting voting rights, building infrastructure, and raising the minimum wage. Gary Chambers is a progressive democrat and his platform is based on improving healthcare, legalizing marijuana, criminal justice reform, common sense gun reform, investing in public education, and building better infrastructure in Louisiana.
