Last Word Strategies congratulates Chasity Verret Martinez on her election as State Representative for Louisiana House District 60 in the February 2026 special election . We were proud to work for her, handling her digital media including social media, emails, text messages, and digital ads.

A former Iberville Parish Councilmember , Rep.-elect Martinez didn’t just win against a MAGA Republican, she rewrote the political map. In a district that backed Donald Trump by 13 points in 2024, she defended District 60 with an astounding 24 points in favor of her campaign.

An avid hunter and a proven advocate for working families, Chasity is deeply rooted in the culture and economy of Iberville and Assumption Parishes. She has consistently shown up for the people who power this region, from those who work the waterways to those driving our industrial backbone. Her campaign was built on trust, shared values, and a record of speaking up and getting things done, and voters responded.
