Louisiana's 38th State Senate district


Louisiana's 38th State Senate district is one of 39 districts in the Louisiana State Senate. It has been represented by Republican Barry Milligan since 2020, following Milligan's defeat of Democratic incumbent John Milkovich.

Geography

District 38 covers all of DeSoto Parish and southern parts of Caddo Parish in Ark-La-Tex, including the towns of Greenwood, Keithville, Stonewall, and Mansfield, as well as a small portion of southern Shreveport.
The district is located entirely within U.S. congressional district 4, and overlaps with Louisiana House of Representatives districts 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 23.

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.
