==Running for Louisiana Public Service Commission==

Also in 1948, Earl Williamson waged an unsuccessful race for the Louisiana Public Service Commission. He polled enough votes to enter the Democratic runoff primary but withdrew because he believed that he was too far behind the frontrunner, Shreveport attorney Harvey Broyles, to close the gap. Broyles was a nephew of former Longite Governor Oscar Kelly Allen of Winnfield. This particular north Louisiana-based PSC seat would be taken in 1954 by the Long-backed [[John J. McKeithen]], a young attorney from Columbia in Caldwell Parish, and the future governor from 1964 to 1972. In 1963, Mayor and Police Juror Earl Williamson would work actively for McKeithen's election as governor. Coincidentally, one of Don Williamson's Shreveport neighbors is a relative of Harvey Broyles.[13]
