Trump-backed Letlow wins GOP primary for Sen. Bill Cassidy’s seat
Rep. Julia Letlow won the Louisiana GOP Senate nomination with President Donald Trump's endorsement, defeating state Treasurer John Fleming. She will likely succeed ousted Sen. Bill Cassidy, who finished third in the initial primary. Letlow's victory was supported by Gov. Jeff Landry and Louisiana Republicans, despite attacks on her past comments regarding diversity initiatives.
