- The 2019 Louisiana gubernatorial election was held to elect the governor of Louisiana. Incumbent Democratic Governor John Bel Edwards won re-election to a second term, defeating Republican businessman Eddie Rispone. Edwards became the first Democratic Governor of Louisiana to win re-election to a second consecutive term in 44 years since Edwin Edwards (no relation) in 1975. It was the closest Louisiana gubernatorial election since 1979. Under Louisiana's jungle primary system, all candidates appear on the same ballot, regardless of party, and voters may vote for any candidate, regardless of their party affiliation. Because no candidate received an absolute majority of the vote during the primary election on October 12, 2019, a runoff election was held on November 16, 2019, between the top two candidates in the primary, Edwards and Rispone. Louisiana is the only state that has a jungle primary system (California and Washington have a similar top two primary system). (en)
- La elección para gobernador de Luisiana de 2019 se llevó a cabo el 12 de octubre (primera vuelta) y el 16 de noviembre (segunda vuelta). El gobernador demócrata titular John Bel Edwards ganó la reelección para un segundo mandato, derrotando al empresario republicano Eddie Rispone. Edwards se convirtió en el primer gobernador demócrata de Luisiana en ganar la reelección para un segundo mandato consecutivo en 44 años desde Edwin Edwards (sin relación) en 1975. Fue la elección para gobernador de Luisiana más reñida desde 1979. Debido a que ningún candidato recibió la mayoría absoluta de los votos durante las elecciones primarias del 12 de octubre, se llevó a cabo una segunda vuelta el 16 de noviembre entre los dos candidatos principales en las primarias.
