Key Points:

• Louisiana held a statewide election featuring a closed primary for U.S. Senate, Public Service Commission, Louisiana Supreme Court, and local offices, but postponed congressional primaries until November due to a Supreme Court ruling invalidating a majority-Black district map.
• In the Republican U.S. Senate primary, incumbent Bill Cassidy faces challengers including Julia Letlow, endorsed by former President Trump, who opposes Cassidy due to his vote to convict Trump in the second impeachment trial.
• Democratic U.S. Senate primary candidates include Nick Albares, Gary Crockett, and Jamie Davis, with a runoff scheduled for June 27 if no candidate surpasses 50% of the vote.
• Voters are also deciding on five constitutional amendments addressing civil service classifications, creation of the St. George Community School System, education trust fund restructuring for teacher raises, property tax adjustments on business inventory, and raising the mandatory retirement age for judges from 70 to 75.
• The amendment to create the St. George Community School System requires approval both statewide and specifically in East Baton Rouge Parish to pass.
