On November 16, 1991, after five terms, Scogin was unseated, 8,399 (52.7 percent) to 7,534 (47.3 percent), by a fellow Republican, Suzanne Mayfield Krieger, also of Slidell. On that same day, Edwards defeated [[David Duke]] to procure a fourth nonconsecutive term as governor. Krieger left the post after a single term when she ran unsuccessfully for lieutenant governor in the 1995 nonpartisan blanket primary.<ref>Louisiana Secretary of State, Election Returns, November 16, 1991.</ref>
