Nancy Landry

Louisiana's Republican Secretary of State Nancy Landry announced that most of Louisiana's primaries, including a closely watched Senate primary, will proceed as scheduled, but not the House seats.

Early voting in the state starts on Saturday and voting ends on May 16 for the state's primaries.

Absentee voting has already been underway.

Republican Governor Jeff Landry said the state is sending notices to early voting sites to warn voters that even though U.S.

House races will appear on their ballots, those votes will not be counted.

It is unclear when Louisiana will hold elections for seats in the U.S.

House of Representatives.
