Julia Letlow, widow of recently-deceased congressman-elect Luke Letlow, won the special election for Louisiana’s 5th Congressional District on Saturday, taking the spot of her late husband who passed away after winning the congressional seat last year.
The election was historic due to the fact that Letlow is the first Republican woman to be elected to the U.S. House of Representatives from Louisiana. Her campaign website states that she is “100% Pro-Life,” opposes minimum wage increases, “is a staunch defender of our constitutional right to bear arms,” and “will always fight to ensure we have secure and safe elections.”
