Nov 7, 2006
Only members of the House of Representatives were up for election in Louisiana in 2006. Republican incumbents like Bobby Jindal in the 1st District, Richard Baker in the 6th District, and Charles Boustany in the 7th District won landslide victories.
In Louisiana's 2nd District, incumbent William Jefferson (pictured left) needed a special runoff election on December 9 to defeat fellow Democrat Karen Carter and return to Congress.
