Scott Anthony Angelle (born November 20, 1961), is a Republicanpolitician from Breaux Bridge, Louisiana. He is the District 2 member of the Louisiana Public Service Commission, an elected five-person utility regulatory body. In January 2013, he succeeded the retiring Jimmy Field on the PSC.
In 2010, Angelle served six months as the interim lieutenant governor. In 2015, he ran for governor as a Republican in the October 24 election and finished in third place during the open primary with 214,907 votes (19.3 percent).
Angelle was an unsuccessful candidate for Louisiana's 3rd congressional district seat held by Charles Boustany, who instead ran unsuccessfully for the United States Senate seat vacated by retiring Republican David Vitter. Angelle's opponents included Lafayette businessman and retired Army Lt. Colonel Greg Ellison, former state Representative Brett Geymann of Lake Charles, former United States Ambassador to East Timor Grover Rees, III, and, the eventual winner, Clay Higgins, a former spokesperson for the St. Landry Parish Sheriff's Office who gained attention for his Crime Stoppers videos that harshly attack the criminal element.
