## Resource

Louisiana’s Senate runoff is heating up as both parties laser-focus on mobilizing their base voters—Republicans on carbon capture, Democrats on coastal issues and education—ignoring broader voter concerns. Julia Letlow leads the GOP with a Trump endorsement and early momentum, while Democrat Jamie Davis holds a strong position after polling in the high 40s, hoping to ride national trends. Expect a battle of bases, where passion trumps persuasion—and turnout may stay low. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
