Falconer did not seek reelection to the state House but was instead an unsuccessful Republican candidate for the District 11 seat in the state Senate against another Republican, [[Patrick McMath]] in the runoff [[primary]] held on November 16, 2019. In that same election, Nelson defeated another Republican, Vincent Joseph "Vince" Liuzza (born 1969), a New Orleans native who moved to the Northshore in 1999. Liuzza is a small business owner and [[real estate]] agent. Nelson polled 8,465 votes (53 percent) to Liuzza's 7,424 (47 percent) to claim the House seat.<ref>Louisiana Secretary of State, Election Returns, October 12 and November 16, 2019.</ref>
