Trump plans major tele-rally for Letlow Senate bid

President Donald Trump plans to hold a virtual rally Monday night for Republican Julia Letlow, who is facing Democrat Jamie Davis in Louisiana’s U.S. Senate election to replace Bill Cassidy. The late-campaign appearance is intended to rally Republicans after a divisive GOP primary left Letlow without endorsements from Cassidy or former rival John Fleming. Although the race is still generally seen as favoring Letlow, analysts say it may be tightening: early voting drew strong participation, including more registered Democrats than Republicans, and Davis may have a viable path to compete. Analysts also note that Republicans have historically turned out more strongly on Election Day.
