Letlow, a former educator and Trump ally, touts her grassroots roots and key conservative wins like the Parents’ Bill of Rights. Fleming, a physician and ex-Trump official, leans into “America First” messaging and vows to slash carbon capture subsidies. Both fiercely oppose DEI and are vying for Cassidy’s voters, with voting rules forcing party-aligned ballots—except for unaffiliated voters who can choose anew. The winner will face off in November, and both are fighting hard to claim the seat. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
