Cassidy Faces Louisiana Senate Primary After Trump Impeachment Vote

Sen. Bill Cassidy faces his first Louisiana voters since his 2021 vote to convict Donald Trump, running against Trump-endorsed Rep. Julia Letlow, former Rep. John Fleming, and businessman Mark Spencer in Saturday's Republican primary, according to Roll Call. Said Trump of Cassidy on Truth Social: "a very disloyal person" — a rebuke tied to Cassidy's role, as HELP Committee chair, in blocking surgeon general nominee Casey Means; a super PAC supporting Cassidy has spent more than $10 million on the race.
