GET ME REWRITE: Louisiana GOP voters flush spineless Sen. Bill Cassidy M.D. down the toilet

Dr. Bill is chair of the Senate Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions (HELP). He voted to confirm RFKjr as secretary of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. He values his personal political survival over public health.   "Do no harm" is not in his vocabulary.
 
Election results:  New York Times
Headline:  New York Times, 5/16/2026

Michael Gold reports:
In a result that underscored the durability of Mr. Trump’s grip on his party, Representative Julia Letlow, the president’s chosen candidate, finished well ahead, drawing about 45 percent of the vote. John Fleming, the state treasurer and a former Trump administration official, edged out Mr. Cassidy to finish second, with about 28 percent of the vote. 
Both Ms. Letlow and Mr. Fleming will advance to a runoff on June 27, according to The Associated Press. 
Neither secured a majority of votes. But Mr. Cassidy, who voted to remove Mr. Trump in 2021 for inciting insurrection and has clashed with the Make America Healthy Again movement over vaccines, could not even secure enough support in his state to stay in the race, finishing with around 25 percent of the vote.
