Louisiana's 5th congressional district special election, 2013

A special election for Louisiana's 5th congressional district was held on November 16, 2013, to elect a member of the United States House of Representatives. Incumbent Republican Congressman Rodney Alexander resigned on September 26, 2013, to become the Secretary of the Louisiana Department of Veterans Affairs under Governor Bobby Jindal.
The primary election was held on October 19, 2013. Under Louisiana's jungle primary system, all candidates appear on the same ballot, regardless of party. As no candidate received 50 percent plus one vote during the primary election, the general election was held on November 16 between the top two candidates in the primary, Republicans Neil Riser, a State Senator from Columbia in Caldwell Parish, and Vance McAllister, a businessman from Swartz. In the general election, McAllister handily defeated Riser to win the seat.
==Background==
On August 6, 2013, Alexander announced that he would not seek a seventh term in the House in the 2014 congressional elections. He cited his weariness with partisanship in Washington, D.C., as the primary reason for his decision to retire.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Alexandra Jaffe, "Rodney Alexander to retire from House" )〕 On August 7, Alexander moved up his timetable for departure from Congress. He resigned his seat effective September 26. Alexander joined the administration of Governor Bobby Jindal as the new secretary of the Louisiana Department of Veterans Affairs.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Jordan Blum, Veterans job speeds D.C. exit )
