Louisiana's 25th State Senate district is one of 39 districts in the Louisiana State Senate. It has been represented by Republican Mark Abraham since 2020.[3]
Geography
District 25 covers all of Cameron and Jefferson Davis Parishes and parts of Acadia and Calcasieu Parishes in Louisiana's far southeastern corner, including some or all of Crowley, Jennings, Welsh, Lake Arthur, Iowa, and Hackberry.[2]
The district is located entirely within U.S. congressional district 3, and overlaps with Louisiana House of Representatives districts 34, 36, 37, 41, 42, and 47.[4]
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.
