The 1952 United States presidential election in Louisiana took place on November 4, 1952, as part of the 1952 United States presidential election. State voters chose ten[3] representatives, or electors, to the Electoral College, who voted for president and vice president.
Louisiana was won by Adlai Stevenson (D–Illinois), running with Senator John Sparkman, with 52.92% of the popular vote, against Dwight D. Eisenhower (R–New York), running with Senator Richard Nixon, with 47.08% of the popular vote.[4][5] Eisenhowerʼs performance was nonetheless the best by a Republican in the state since Reconstruction.
As of the 2020 presidential election[update], this is the last election in which Ouachita Parish, Union Parish, and LaSalle Parish voted for a Democratic presidential candidate.[6] This is the most recent election in which the Democratic nominee would carry the state without winning the presidency.
