Misti Cordell: A Fighter for Louisiana, Not a Politician for Washington
Unlike the career politicians in the race, Misti Cordell is not a career politician.
Misti is a wife and mother, a successful businesswoman, a Republican leader, a two-time Trump delegate, and Governor Landry’s appointed Board of Regents Chair.
She has spent her adulthood raising a family, growing a business, and serving her community - giving her real-world experience, not empty rhetoric. As a mother and businesswoman, she understands firsthand the pressures families face from rising healthcare costs, failing schools, inflation, and over-taxation.

A proud wife and mother of two sons, Misti has devoted years to education initiatives and community service. She has volunteered extensively for charitable efforts supporting veterans, senior citizens, small business job creators, students, and pro-life causes. She is the granddaughter of a World War II veteran who stormed the beaches of Normandy and the daughter of an Army Veteran, a legacy of service that continues to guide her commitment to faith, family, and freedom. In addition to her professional experience, Misti’s understanding of Louisiana’s economy is further bolstered by her husband’s leadership in a longtime family business servicing the state’s agricultural and energy sectors.

A Trump Delegate to the 2020 and 2024 Republican National Conventions, Misti has spent years as a Republican leader. She serves on the Louisiana Republican State Central Committee and has held executive roles in multiple parish and local Republican organizations.
As Louisiana’s next Member of Congress, Misti will focus on defending President Trump from partisan impeachment attacks, cutting taxes, eliminating wasteful spending, securing the border, protecting the right to life, defending the Second Amendment, restoring parental rights in education, protecting women’s sports and Title IX, rebuilding infrastructure, expanding broadband access, and fighting for farmers and small businesses across both urban and rural Louisiana.
