Louisiana Senate runoff

President Trump made a final appeal to Louisiana Republicans to support Rep. Julia Letlow in a Senate runoff election against state Treasurer John Fleming. The race is described as one of the year’s most closely watched GOP primaries.

Louisiana Republicans will hold a Senate primary runoff between Julia Letlow and John Fleming after neither secured a majority in May. President Donald Trump endorsed Letlow, who challenged incumbent Bill Cassidy in the primary, and has repeatedly supported her candidacy.
