Letlow, who won her House seat after her husband’s death, is touting her loyalty to Trump, while Fleming emphasizes his conservative credentials and MAGA roots. Their campaigns have clashed over DEI, AI-generated ads, women’s sports, and carbon capture — with Letlow’s super PAC pouring in $4 million to boost her message. Analysts say Letlow edges ahead in urban areas, while Fleming may win rural voters. Meanwhile, Democrats battle for their nominee, but with Trump’s 22-point win in Louisiana, the GOP victor is poised to dominate.
