Louisiana House of Representatives2015 Louisiana State Senate Elections

Elections for the Louisiana House of Representatives took place in 2015. A primary election was held on October 24, 2015, with a general election held in districts where necessary on November 21, 2015. The signature filing deadline for candidates wishing to run in this election was September 10, 2015, at 4:30 p.m. CDT.[1]


Louisiana elections use the Louisiana majority-vote system. All candidates compete in the same primary, and a candidate can win the election outright by receiving more than 50% of the vote. If no candidate does, the top two vote recipients from the primary advance to the general election, regardless of their partisan affiliation.

For information about which offices are nominated via primary election, see this article.

The Louisiana House of Representatives was one of seven state legislative chambers throughout the country holding elections in November 2015. However, fifteen races were decided by a November general election; all other seats were won in the primary by virtue of a majority of the vote.

Incumbents retiring

Twenty-three incumbents, most of them term-limited, did not run for re-election. They were:

Impact of term limits

See also State legislatures with term limits

Of the 15 states with term limits, Louisiana is the only instance where the restrictions were imposed by the state's legislators, rather than through the ballot initiative process. Under Louisiana's term limits, anyone who has served more than two and one-half terms in three consecutive terms may not be elected to the succeeding term in the same house.[2]

There are 105 seats in the Louisiana House of Representatives. In 2015, 14 legislators, or 13.3 percent of the total seats, were ineligible to run for the State House again. Of them, seven were Democrats and seven were Republicans.

In addition to the 14 state representatives who left office because of term limits, seven state senators were also termed-out.

The 14 incumbents who were ineligible to run in November were:

Democratic Party Democrats (7):

Republican Party Republicans (7):

Competitiveness

Candidates unopposed by a major party

In 83 of the 105 districts up for election in 2015, only one major party fielded a candidate. A total of 37 Democrats, 46 Republicans, and one independent were guaranteed election barring unforeseen circumstances.

Candidates from the two major parties faced off in 22 of the 105 districts up for election.

Primary challenges

A total of 21 incumbents faced same-party primary competition on October 24. Twenty-three incumbents did not seek re-election in 2015 and another 61 incumbents advanced past the primary without same-party opposition.

Two incumbents were defeated by a member of the same party in the primary:

Retiring incumbents

Twenty-three incumbent representatives did not run for re-election, while 82 (78.1%) ran for re-election. A list of those incumbents, 13 Democrats and 10 Republicans, can be found above.

Historical context

See also: Competitiveness in State Legislative Elections: 1972-2014

Uncontested elections: In 2014, 32.8 percent of Americans lived in states with an uncontested state senate election. Similarly, 40.4 percent of Americans lived in states with uncontested house elections. Primary elections were uncontested even more frequently, with 61 percent of people living in states with no contested primaries. Uncontested elections often occur in locations that are so politically one-sided that the result of an election would be a foregone conclusion regardless of whether it was contested or not.

F5 Pop. % with uncontested state legislative races.png

Open seats: In most cases, an incumbent will run for re-election, which decreases the number of open seats available. In 2014, 83 percent of the 6,057 seats up for election saw the incumbent running for re-election. The states that impose term limits on their legislatures typically see a higher percentage of open seats in a given year because a portion of incumbents in each election are forced to leave office. Overall, the number of open seats decreased from 2012 to 2014, dropping from 21.2 percent in 2012 to 17.0 percent in 2014.

Incumbent win rates: Ballotpedia's competitiveness analysis of elections between 1972 and 2014 documented the high propensity for incumbents to win re-election in state legislative elections. In fact, since 1972, the win rate for incumbents had not dropped below 90 percent—with the exception of 1974, when 88 percent of incumbents were re-elected to their seats. Perhaps most importantly, the win rate for incumbents generally increased over time. In 2014, 96.5 percent of incumbents were able to retain their seats. Common convention holds that incumbents are able to leverage their office to maintain their seat. However, the high incumbent win rate may actually be a result of incumbents being more likely to hold seats in districts that are considered safe for their party.

Marginal primaries: Often, competitiveness is measured by examining the rate of elections that have been won by amounts that are considered marginal (5 percent or less). During the 2014 election, 90.1 percent of primary and general election races were won by margins higher than 5 percent. Interestingly, it is usually the case that only one of the two races—primary or general—will be competitive at a time. This means that if a district's general election is competitive, typically one or more of the district's primaries were won by more than 5 percent. The reverse is also true: If a district sees a competitive primary, it is unlikely that the general election for that district will be won by less than 5 percent. Primaries often see very low voter turnout in comparison to general elections. In 2014, there were only 27 million voters for state legislative primaries, but approximately 107 million voters for the state legislative general elections.
