Geymann was an unsuccessful candidate for Louisiana's 3rd congressional district seat in the [[primary]] election held on November 8, 2016, in conjunction with the presidential election between [[Donald Trump]] and [[Hillary Rodham Clinton]]. The position was then held by Republican Charles Boustany, a retired [[Lafayette]] [[physician]], who ran instead, unsuccessfully, for the [[United States Senate]] for the seat vacated by Republican [[David Vitter]]. Geymann's principal opponents were Moderate Republican Scott Angelle, a former member of the Louisiana Public Service Commission from Breaux Bridge and [[Clay Higgins]], a conservative and a Crime Stoppers reporter known for his attacks on the criminal element. In the December runoff contest, Higgins handily defeated Angelle to claim the House seat and sailed to an easy reelection in 2018 despite a bevy of Democrat opponents.<ref>Louisiana Secretary of State, Election Returns, December 2018.</ref>
