About this race

Alycia Grace-O'Bear, Lori White, and Victor Woods Jr. are on the November 3, 2026 open primary ballot for this seat on the 18th Judicial District Court, Election Section 1, Division C. Every voter in Iberville Parish, West Baton Rouge Parish, and Pointe Coupee Parish elects this seat, since Louisiana district judges are elected district-wide across the 18th Judicial District (La. R.S. 13:477). Louisiana's open primary elects a candidate outright with a majority of the vote; otherwise the top two finishers meet in a December 12, 2026 runoff. Listed from the Louisiana Secretary of State's official candidate list.

What this office does

Trial court judge. A trial judge presides over criminal and civil cases at the first level: bail and pleas, motions, trials, sentencing and civil judgments. Judges are bound by state law and appellate precedent and are barred by judicial conduct rules from campaigning on how they would rule. Most states elect trial judges on a nonpartisan ballot; the term and the courts a judge may sit on vary by state.

This list comes from official election records but may be incomplete. It can miss, for example, late or petition candidates and some city, school and district races. Your official sample ballot is the final word.
