BATON ROUGE—The Louisiana Freedom Caucus would like to remind Sen. Bill Cassidy, who on Sunday called for President Donald Trump to drop out of the race for President, that Donald Trump got more votes in Louisiana than any other politician ever. Twice. In the 2020 election, 26,868 more Louisianans voted for President Trump than voted for Sen. Cassidy.
Currently, polling averages in Louisiana ending August 14, 2023, compiled by FiveThirtyEight.com, show Donald Trump leading the race with 75% of the Republican primary vote, which is an average of +65% ahead of the next closest candidate.
“The Louisiana Freedom Caucus is here to ensure that the laws and policies of the State of Louisiana align with the political beliefs and desires of our people. It is clear, the people of Louisiana strongly support President Trump. Accordingly, we suggest that Sen. Cassidy may want to rethink his position,” said Alan Seabaugh, Chairman of the Louisiana Freedom Caucus.
