Jimmy D. Long

Jimmy Dale Long, Sr. (born October 6, 1931), is a Democratic former member of the Louisiana House of Representatives. He represented District 23 (Winn and Natchitoches parishes) from 1968 until 2000, being the "dean" of the Louisiana House when he returned to private life. A recognized authority on educational policy, for sixteen years, he chaired the House Education Committee. Shreveport ''The ShreveportTimes'' named Long "One of the 100 Most Influential People of the 20th Century in North Louisiana." He is a member of the Long political dynasty.
==Defeat in 1999==

In 1963, Long ran unsuccessfully for the Louisiana House, having been defeated by the Natchitoches dentist, Dr. Ray Tarver in the Democratic primary. In 1967, Long unseated Tarver in the primary and thereafter, he won seven consecutive elections, often with minor opposition. However, he was surprisingly defeated for a ninth term in the House in the 1999 nonpartisan blanket primary by his fellow Democrat, Thomas Taylor Townsend, who is a nephew and law partner of former Democratic State Senator Donald G. Kelly of Natchitoches. Long received 7,447 votes (49 percent) to Townsend's 7,643 (51 percent). The defeat was stunning in that Long had been unopposed in 1995 but had faced competition in 1991. Long was among the last members of his political family to have held public office in Louisiana. Taylor Townsend in turn was reelected in 2003. Two years after his defeat, Long was appointed by Republican Governor Murphy J. "Mike" Foster, Jr., to the University of Louisiana board. The board members themselves named him chairman.
During his last term in the House, one of Long's colleagues was his cousin, Mike Smith, the area state senator from Winnfield.
