The Louisiana Political Museum and Hall of Fame in located in Winnfield, Winn Parish, in the U.S. state of Louisiana. It was created in 1987 by an act of the Louisiana State Legislature to highlight the careers of the state's leading politicians and political journalists. Because three governors, Huey P. Long, Jr., Oscar K. Allen, and Earl Kemp Long, were born there Winnfield calls itself "the birthplace of Louisiana politics."[1] The museum, which opened in August 1993 on the centennial of Huey Long's birth, is located at 499 East Main Street in a restored Louisiana and Arkansas Railroad depot. Each inductee is sketched by the former Shreveport Times cartoonist Preston Allen "Pap" Dean, Jr., himself one of the original thirteen honorees.[1]

Large displays are accorded for the two Governors Long, with sculptures of each man shown speaking to voters. Recording of Long political speeches are sometimes played as visitors examine the political past. Other Long family members inducted into the Hall of Fame include the late U.S. Senator Russell B. Long, former U.S. Representatives Speedy O. Long and Gillis W. Long, and former State Representative Jimmy D. Long of Natchitoches. Zachary Taylor, the only U.S. President from Louisiana (though he was born in Virginia), was inducted in 1995.[1]

As of 2009, 121 had been inducted into the Hall of Fame, mostly Democrats, with fewer than twenty being Republicans and a handful identified without party affiliation. The Republicans did not become competitive in Louisiana until the middle 1990s. Republican honorees include former Governors David C. Treen, Mike Foster, and Charles E. "Buddy" Roemer, former U.S. Representatives Henson Moore, Richard H. Baker, and Bob Livingston, former gubernatorial candidate Francis Grevemberg, former Louisiana Secretaries of State Wade O. Martin, Jr., and Fox McKeithen, and Charles deGravelles and his wife, Virginia deGravelles of Lafayette, who were Louisiana state Republican chairman and national committeewoman, respectively, during the 1960s. The nominees are chosen by a statewide panel of political historians and writers. Each inductee is given his own display, which includes the Pap Dean caricature.[2]

Journalists honored include Harley Bozeman, Sam Hanna, Sr., Wiley W. Hilburn, Iris Kelso, William Lynch, John LaPlante, Jr., and Gus Weill, who later became a consultant to Governor John J. McKeithen.[1]
