The 2000 Louisiana Democratic presidential primary took place on March 14, 2000, in the Democratic Party primaries for the 2000 presidential election. The Louisiana primary was a closed primary, with the state awarding 72 delegates, of which 61 were pledged delegates allocated on the basis of the results of the primary.
Presumptive nominee and vice president Al Gore won nearly 73% of the vote and 54 delegates, while senator Bill Bradley only took just less than 20%, conspiracy theorist Lyndon LaRouche Jr. took close to 4% of the vote, while Randy Crow, a perennial candidate from North Carolina who was only on the ballot in this state, took the rest of the vote.
