Lewis Leslie McAllister, Junior, was born on September 25, 1932, in Jackson, Mississippi.[2] He was an accountant.[1] In 1963, he was elected to represent Lauderdale County in the Mississippi House of Representatives in a runoff election to replace resigning House member Natie Caraway.[1][2] McAllister, a self-described Goldwater Republican, was the first member of the Republican Party to serve in the Mississippi Legislature since George L. Sheldon, who served from 1920 to 1924.[1] He was re-elected to serve the 1964–1968 term.[2]
