Louisiana's 10th State Senate district is one of 39 districts in the Louisiana State Senate. It has been represented by Republican Kirk Talbot since 2020, succeeding fellow Republican Daniel Martiny.[3]
District 10 is based entirely in Jefferson Parish along Lake Pontchartrain, including some or all of the Greater New Orleans suburbs of Metairie, Kenner, Harahan, Elmwood, and River Ridge.[2]
The district overlaps with Louisiana's 1st and 2nd congressional districts, and with the 78th, 79th, 82nd, and 92nd districts of the Louisiana House of Representatives.[4]
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.
