The race in question is for the District 2 seat on the Louisiana Public Service Commission .

The commission is an elected regulatory body that can directly impact the pocketbooks of Louisiana residents through the cost of energy.

The commissioners can create certain energy policies and represent the residents in disputes with utility companies.

Early voting begins Friday and ends Oct. 29 .

All three candidates say the regulatory work of a public service commissioner is much more complicated than other elected offices.

Candidates say the PSC needs to expand its public outreach efforts and incorporate better communication technology to make the commission’s activities more accessible and transparent to the public.

The Louisiana Public Service Commission does not vote on federal policy and has never adopted or considered any versions of a Green New Deal proposal.
