Louisiana's 24th State Senate district


Louisiana's 24th State Senate district is one of 39 districts in the Louisiana State Senate. It has been represented by Democratic Senator Gerald Boudreaux since 2016, succeeding Democratic-turned-Republican Senator Elbert Guillory.

Geography

District 24 stretches across several majority-black sections of Lafayette, St. Landry, and St. Martin Parishes in Acadiana, including northern Lafayette and some or all of Carencro, Scott, Sunset, Opelousas, Eunice, and Port Barre.
The district overlaps with U.S. congressional districts 3, 4, and 5, and with Louisiana House of Representatives districts 38, 39, 40, 41, 44, 46, and 96.

Recent election results

Louisiana uses a jungle primary system. If no candidate receives 50% in the first round of voting, when all candidates appear on the same ballot regardless of party, the top-two finishers advance to a runoff election.
