Today, the Louisiana Democratic Party is pleased to announce the hiring of Drew Prestridge as the new Interim Executive Director! Prestridge was recommended by Chair Gaines and approved with no objections by the newly-elected members of the party’s Executive Committee. Prestridge will lead the party through the current leadership transition and the upcoming November 2024 elections.
A native of Lafayette, Prestridge rejoins the LDP after having served as the party’s Finance Director during former Governor John Bel Edwards’ historic gubernatorial win in 2015. Prestridge is a skilled fundraiser and campaign expert, having spent the last 14 years helping several Democratic campaigns and candidates in Louisiana and across the country.
“Drew Prestridge brings the experience, knowledge, and work ethic our state party needs to rebuild and grow,” said Gaines. “I have a great deal of confidence in Drew to unify the party, set us up for success, and secure big wins for Democrats this fall.”
