来自路易斯安那州东北部乡村的农民、前教区官员杰米·戴维斯，已成为民主党在历来倾向共和党的路易斯安那州的联邦参议员候选人。
据美联社报道，戴维斯在周六的民主党联邦参议员初选中击败了新奥尔良商人加里·克罗克特，此次竞选旨在接替共和党参议员比尔·卡西迪。
得益于州民主党支持以及相比克罗克特的巨额竞选资金和人员优势，戴维斯在初选中被普遍看好。如今他将面临极为艰难的 uphill 之战，力争成为18年来首位在路易斯安那州联邦参议员选举中获胜的民主党人。

获得总统唐纳德·特朗普支持的众议员朱莉娅·莱特洛，与路易斯安那州财政部长约翰·弗莱明在共和党联邦参议员初选中对决。
在第二次弹劾审判中投下定罪特朗普的选票五年后，卡西迪落选。
早在1月宣布参选前就获得特朗普支持的莱特洛，在初选中以领先弗莱明十几个百分点的优势位居第一，卡西迪位列第三。由于没有候选人获得过半数选票，莱特洛和弗莱明进入共和党提名初选中的决胜轮，卡西迪也成为2012年印第安纳州参议员理查德·卢格以来，首位在党内初选中落选的在任共和党参议员。

特朗普在社交媒体上为卡西迪的败选欢呼，称“很高兴看到他的政治生涯结束了！”
卡西迪在向支持者发表败选演讲时回击了特朗普，他表示：“当你参与民主进程时，有时结果不会如你所愿。但你不能闹脾气，不能抱怨，不能声称选举被窃取……你不能编造借口。”
莱特洛得到了特朗普核心盟友、路易斯安那州州长杰夫·兰德里的支持。2020年当选她现任席位的丈夫卢克·莱特洛在宣誓就职美国众议院议员六天后去世，她于2021年赢得该国会席位。她在整个参议院竞选过程中一直强调自己得到特朗普的支持。

曾在国会任职八年，并在特朗普第一任期内担任白宫副幕僚长的弗莱明认为，自己是共和党联邦参议员初选中最保守的候选人。

Jamie Davis, a farmer and former parish official from rural northeast Louisiana, is the Democratic Party’s Senate nominee in reliably red Louisiana.
Davis defeated Gary Crockett, a business owner in New Orleans, in Saturday’s Democratic Senate runoff election, The Associated Press reported, in the race to succeed Republican Sen. Bill Cassidy.
Davis, who was heavily favored in the runoff thanks to support from the state party and his massive campaign cash and staff advantage over Crockett, will now face an extremely steep uphill climb as he tries to become the first Louisiana Democrat in 18 years to win a Senate election.

Rep. Julia Letlow, who was backed by President Donald Trump, and Louisiana Treasurer John Fleming faced off in the GOP Senate runoff.
Five years after he voted to convict Trump in his second impeachment trial, Cassidy was sent packing.
Letlow, who was backed by Trump even before she entered the race in January, finished first in the primary, double digits ahead of Fleming, with Cassidy in third place. Since no candidate cracked 50% of the vote, Letlow and Fleming advanced to the runoff for the Republican nomination and Cassidy became the first elected Republican senator to lose renomination since Sen. Richard Lugar of Indiana in 2012.

Trump, celebrating Cassidy’s defeat, said on social media that “it’s nice to see that his political career is OVER!”
Cassidy, in a speech to supporters after conceding, took a jab at Trump, saying, “When you participate in democracy, sometimes it doesn’t turn out the way you want it to. But you don’t pout, you don’t whine. You don’t claim the election was stolen… You don’t manufacture some excuse.”
Letlow, who was backed by Louisiana Gov. Jeff Landry, a top Trump ally, won her congressional seat in 2021, after her husband, Luke Letlow, died six days after being sworn into the U.S. House after his 2020 election victory for the seat she now holds. She highlighted her support from Trump throughout her Senate campaign.

Fleming, who spent eight years in Congress before serving as a White House deputy chief of staff during Trump’s first term, argued he was the most conservative candidate in the GOP Senate primary.
