How this mark works

We track key votes on sending U.S. weapons and money to the government of Israel. A check means every tracked vote they cast came down against sending more, on the side of peace and de-escalation. A question mark means a mixed record: they sided with sending up to half of the time. An X means they voted to send more weapons and money in over half of their tracked votes, even as the way those weapons and dollars were being used became more and more obvious. At exactly half, money this election cycle from a lobbying group we track, or an endorsement from a group that backs sending weapons, makes it an X. Only votes actually cast are counted. Where a candidate has no recorded votes on these bills, the mark comes instead from a reviewed reading of their public record (money from the lobbying groups we track, endorsements, and their own words since January 26, 2024). There an X also covers fully backing the conduct of the war by the government of Israel without significant reservations, and a question mark also covers speaking about Israel without saying clearly where they stand on U.S. weapons and funding. A dash means No Position Found: we found nothing in their own words about Israel, Gaza or the war.

See a dash? Ask the candidate where they stand, then send us their answer and we'll review it and update the mark. Or volunteer to help review candidates.

No recorded votes on the bills we track. We found nothing in their own words about Israel, Gaza or the war.

Nothing located has Glass taking a position on U.S. weapons or money for the government of Israel, or on U.S. aid to Palestinians. Her Ballotpedia survey and a voter-guide questionnaire are blank under her name, and no campaign site or statement was located.

Deep Dive

Glass is running with no party affiliation in Louisiana's 1st District.

This is a genuinely empty record rather than a thin one. Her Ballotpedia profile records that she has not completed that site's 2026 candidate survey, the voter guide covering this election lists her name with no questionnaire attached, and no campaign site, interview or public statement was located, on these questions or on any other.

What was checked to reach that conclusion is listed on this card's research page. You are better placed to change that than we are. Ask Glass directly, or at a candidate forum, and send us the reply: it goes on this page in her own words.

Where the absence was checked

  • [Consulted, read 2026-08-20] Ballotpedia profile. Opened. It states: "Liddy Glass has not yet completed Ballotpedia's 2026 Candidate Connection survey." That is a fact about the form, not a position, and nothing is inferred from it.
  • [Consulted, read 2026-08-20] The iVoterGuide voter guide for this election opens and lists her as E. "Liddy" Glass, with no questionnaire answers attached. Several of her opponents in this state do have filled-in questionnaires on the same platform, which is why the blank is recorded rather than passed over.
  • No campaign website was located for her, and none is recorded in our records for the candidate.
  • One further address was offered, https://www.newsfromthestates.com/article/miguez-jumps-6th-district-race-trump-endorsement-uncertain. It is an article about a candidate in a different district and mentions her once in passing on qualifying; it carries no position of hers.

Race and status context

  • Qualified on Louisiana's certified list for the all-candidate November election in the 1st District as a no-party candidate, with a December runoff between the top two if nobody clears half the vote. Four candidates are on the ballot.
  • She has held no federal office, so there are no recorded votes on this card.
