/* Race for lieutenant governor */
There was little evidence of "ticket-splitting," where Morrison supporters backed Aycock, or where McKeithen backers chose Duval. In retrospect, all four men had far more in common than otherwise. Duval in fact was arguably as conservative as Aycock, but in central and north Louisiana, voters perceived Duval unfavorably as a Morrison lieutenant. He had also been Morrison's campaign manager in the unsuccessful 1959 election against [[Jimmie Davis]].<ref>''Minden Herald,'' November 30, 1959, p. 13.</ref>
Other candidates on the Morrison slate were state Representative [[Jack M. Dyer ]] of Baton Rouge for insurance commissioner, and [[Raymond Laborde]], the mayor of Marksville in Avoyelles Parish for custodian of voting machines, a position later renamed elections commissioner. In 1968, when Duval entered the state Senate, Lieutenant Governor Aycock, presiding officer of the Senate, began his third term in the second-highest state office.
