Les électeurs de Louisiane se sont rendus aux urnes samedi pour la primaire républicaine dans la course au Sénat américain. Le sénateur sortant Bill Cassidy a été confronté aux défis de la députée Julia Letlow et du trésorier de l'État John Fleming, dans un contexte de forte implication du président Donald Trump.

Cette primaire a marqué un test clé pour les efforts de Trump visant à évincer les républicains qui s'étaient opposés à lui par le passé. Cassidy, l'un des sept sénateurs républicains à avoir voté pour la condamnation de Trump après l'émeute du Capitole du 6 janvier 2021, s'est présenté comme étant tourné vers l'avenir plutôt que vers les griefs passés. « Je vais gagner aujourd'hui », a déclaré Cassidy lors d'une entrevue. « Il est possible que je doive passer par un second tour. Mais je voterai toujours pour le bien de mon pays et de mon peuple. »
