Five candidates are running for Louisiana’s 4th Congressional District in the general election on Nov. 3, 2026. The field includes two Democrats and three Republicans, one of whom is the incumbent.
This is a contested U.S. House race, meaning more than one candidate is seeking the seat. The party labels identify each candidate’s political affiliation, but they do not by themselves explain what a candidate would do in office. No documented policy positions are on file for any of the five candidates.
The candidates in the race
Conrad Roberts Cable is a Democratic candidate. Cable is not listed as the incumbent. No biography, documented policy position or campaign-finance figures are on file.
Matthew Gromlich is a Democratic candidate. Gromlich is not listed as the incumbent. No biography, documented policy position or campaign-finance figures are on file.
James Michael Johnson is a Republican candidate. Johnson is listed as the incumbent, meaning Johnson currently holds the office. No biography, documented policy position or campaign-finance figures are on file.
Joshua Morott is a Republican candidate. Morott is not listed as the incumbent. No biography, documented policy position or campaign-finance figures are on file.
Michael Nichols is a Republican candidate. Nichols is not listed as the incumbent. No biography, documented policy position or campaign-finance figures are on file.
What the records establish
The race listing establishes each candidate’s name, party affiliation and incumbent status, along with the office and election date. It does not establish where any candidate stands on taxes, federal spending, health care, immigration, energy, education, national security or other issues that may come before Congress.
A lack of documented positions should not be read as support for or opposition to a policy. It means no stance is recorded for that candidate. The same distinction applies to the campaign-finance fields: “not on file” is not the same as reporting zero dollars.
Funds raised generally show money received by a campaign, while funds spent show campaign expenditures. Cash on hand generally describes money the campaign still holds. No figures for those categories are on file for Cable, Gromlich, Johnson, Morott or Nichols.
Election details for voters
The general election is scheduled for Tuesday, Nov. 3, 2026. Voters in Louisiana’s 4th Congressional District will choose among the five listed candidates for a seat in the U.S. House of Representatives.
The current field gives voters a choice among two Democratic candidates and three Republican candidates. Johnson is the only candidate identified as an incumbent. Cable, Gromlich, Morott and Nichols are not listed as incumbents.
As Election Day approaches, the main record-based developments to follow are changes to the candidate roster, the addition of candidate biographies or documented policy positions, and campaign-finance filings showing money raised, money spent and cash on hand. Those updates would give voters more information for comparing the candidates without treating party affiliation alone as a complete description of their views.
