2011
Foxworth ran in the 2011 election for Louisiana House of Representatives District 101. She faced Harold Williams (R), Sarah Holliday (R), Frederic Reed (D), Jonathan Holloway, Sr. (D) and Edward James (D) in the primary election on October 22, 2011. Because Louisiana uses a blanket primary system, a candidate can be declared the overall winner of the seat by garnering 50 percent +1 of the vote in the primary. However, since no candidate reached this threshold, a general election took place on November 19, 2011 between James and Foxworth.[5] James defeated Foxworth to win the seat.[2]
