Jamie Davis

Jamie Davis, listed by his campaign as James "Jamie" Davis Jr., is from Waterproof, Louisiana, in Tensas Parish. His campaign says he farms Delta land that his grandfather sharecropped, under the name Davis Farms, and that he built a business and has met a payroll; it does not name the business. He has served on the Tensas Parish Police Jury, the parish's governing body, though the campaign gives no dates. In 2026 Louisiana used closed party primaries for the U.S. Senate seat held by Republican Bill Cassidy. In the May 16 Democratic primary Davis led with 47.4 percent, ahead of Gary Crockett at 26.3 percent and Nicholas Albares at 26.2 percent, and in the June 27 runoff he defeated Crockett with 79.9 percent. On the Republican side, Rep. Julia Letlow led the May 16 primary with 44.8 percent and won the June 27 runoff over John Fleming with 56.9 percent; Cassidy did not advance. Davis faces Letlow on November 3.
