Duke has run multiple times for office, including races for the United States Senate in 1990, 1996, and 2016, when Republicsn [[David Vitter]], who succeeded Duke in the state House in 1992, declined to pursue a third term after having been defeated in 2015 in a race for governor of Louisiana. In his most recent venture on the ballot, Duke finished in seventh place among twenty-four candidates with 58,581 votes (3 percent).<ref>{{cite web|url=https://voterportal.sos.la.gov/Graphical|title=Election Returns|date=November 8, 2016|publisher=Louisiana Secretary of State|accessdate=November 10, 2016}}</ref> Duke was allowed in the second of two senatorial debates in 2016 though the sixth place finisher, retired [[United States Air Force]] Colonel [[Rob Maness]], was excluded because of low poll standings. Maness, who also ran for the Senate in 2014 against [[Bill Cassidy]] and [[Mary Landrieu]], received 90,812 votes (5 percent) in the 2016 primary election. The seat will be filled in 2017 by either state Treasurer John Neely Kennedy, a Republican, or the Democrat Public Service Commissioner Foster Campbell, the two leading candidates from the primary election who meet in a runoff contest on December 10, 2016.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.theadvocate.com/acadiana/news/politics/elections/article_5bc8107e-a6d2-11e6-8011-9f0284eb23bf.html|title=Foster Campbell seen as facing steep climb in U.S. Senate race against John Kennedy|publisher=''Baton Rouge Advocate''|author=Tyler Bridges|date=November 9, 2016|accessdate=November 10, 2016}}</ref>
