A general election was held in the U.S. state of Louisiana on October 14, 2023, with second rounds held on November 18 where needed. Louisiana uses a two round system, where all candidates from all parties share the same ballot in the first round, and if no candidate wins an absolute majority, a runoff between the top two is held.

Local.
Caddo Parish Sheriff.
The local race for Sheriff in Caddo Parish received national attention when Democrat Henry Whitehorn appeared to win the race by one vote against Republican John Nickelson. After more than 43,000 votes had been cast in the race, a recount still yielded a one-vote victory for Whitehorn. After the recount, Nickelson filed a lawsuit against Whitehorn and local election officials challenging the validity of the results and demanding that either he be declared the victor or a new election be held. A specially appointed judge, Joe Bleich, found that there had been 11 illegally cast votes and ordered a new election to take place no earlier than March 23, 2024. On appeal by Whitehorn, the Second Circuit Court of Appeal upheld the lower court's decision by a 3–2 margin. Whitehorn would go on to win the do-over election, this time expanding his lead to 4,000 against Nickelson, with Nickelson calling Whitehorn to concede the night of the election. After Sheriff Steve Prator's term expired on February 29, Chief Deputy Jay Long was sworn in as interim Sheriff while the special election was still underway. After Whitehorn's victory, he was sworn in as Caddo Parish Sheriff on June 28, 2024.
