Surprises In Louisiana Congressional Elections

As of 5:00 pm, here are the candidates qualifying for the statewide US Senate and Congressional offices. Of particular note is Michael Green who has decided to run as “no party” rather than as a Democrat. He and others will face the winner of the Democrat primary in Congressional District 6. Also, in the First Congressional District, James L. "Jimmy" Fahrenholtz who has been on the school board of Orleans Parish has opted to run for Congress. Currently, that seat is held by William “Bill” Jefferson. This information is unofficial.
