PSC Commissioner Foster Campbell
Public Service Commissioner Foster Campbell files paperwork seeking a fourth term in the office representing northwest Louisiana.
Campbell is one of the state’s longest-serving elected officials, first elected to the State Senate in 1975. Campbell says he wants to continue his work serving the working people of the state.
“When you are on the side of the people you offend the wealthy folks that have lobbyists representing them. What you have to remember is that average folks don’t have lobbyists representing them,” says Campbell.
Campbell has made several attempts to run for federal and statewide offices but has not been successful, his most recent effort a loss to now-Senator John Kennedy in 2016.
The Louisiana Political Hall of Famer says if given another term he will continue to fight for more rural broadband access and against predatory utility practices.
“They know I don’t have any tap dancing shoes, I don’t have a pair of tap dancing shoes like a lot of politicians. If you ask me I am going to say yes or no and I will listen to you and I am going to tell you what is on my mind,” says Campbell.
