Lafayette, LA (10/18/2024) – Peter Williams, a candidate for Louisiana’s 6th Congressional District, continues to stand out by making himself accessible to voters. He recently attended three major events in the Alexandria region: the Combined Neighbor Town Hall at New Scott Olly, the Zion Hill Church Family Political Forum, and the Alpha Phi Alpha Political Forum.
His commitment to showing up and answering questions from local residents sets him apart from other candidates.
Williams told KLFY in Lafayette that his experience, work ethic, and leadership abilities position him well for the role. Despite being referred to as “the irrelevant candidate” during his 2016 congressional run, he now feels more prepared and driven to represent the district.
Involvement in Agriculture
His involvement in agriculture, combined with his background in community leadership, particularly in Lafayette, has shaped his campaign. Williams is focused on strengthening Louisiana’s agricultural economy, particularly in the six parishes that make up the district. His deep ties to rural Louisiana and his hands-on approach in addressing key community issues make him a relatable candidate for many.
“I’m an agriculturalist, and I live in rural Louisiana,” Williams told KLFY. He believes that his experience in agriculture, housing, education, and transportation will help him address the needs of his constituents. His Louisiana-first mentality and commitment to unity within the state party also drive his campaign.
Unlike other candidates who are less visible, Peter Williams has consistently made himself available to voters. He emphasizes that being an elected official means telling people what they need to hear, even if it’s not what they want to hear. His dedication to the district and belief in doing what’s best for Louisiana shines through in his community engagements and responses.
By attending these key forums and events in Alexandria, Williams has made it clear that he values direct communication with voters. His willingness to participate, listen, and address local concerns has helped him gain recognition as a candidate who prioritizes accessibility and leadership in Louisiana’s 6th Congressional District.
