Gov. Jeff Landry commented on Rep. Julia Letlow’s possible Senate run, which gained attention after President Donald Trump offered her his endorsement. Letlow thanked Trump and described her priorities, but had not announced a run in the article.
Landry said Louisiana voters showed “a lot of angst” about the Senate seat and that people would have to wait to see what Letlow decided. The seat is held by Sen. Bill Cassidy, who is seeking another term. Trump’s social media post offering Letlow his endorsement if she ran helped fuel speculation.
