District 37 Spans Two Southwest Louisiana Parishes
Louisiana’s 37th Representative District covers parts of Calcasieu Parish and Jefferson Davis Parish, linking communities in southwest Louisiana under one state House seat. The district’s results combine voting data from both parishes, which reported early and absentee ballots from 2 of 2 parishes and full Election Day returns from all 34 precincts.
Turnout below 20 percent suggests that fewer than one in five registered voters in the district participated in the election, based on the unofficial figure provided.
