Julia Letlow leads John Fleming by eight points heading into Louisiana’s Republican Senate runoff, with almost no undecided vote left to move.
Released June 26, 2026 · Conducted by CivicLens Research

Key findings
- Letlow leads 51.5% to 43.3%. The gap is outside the margin of error two days before the runoff.
- The race is close to settled. Only 5.2% are undecided — too few to close an eight-point gap even if they broke entirely one way.
- Turnout intent is high. 92.2% say they are extremely likely to vote, with another 6.1% very likely.
- The runoff electorate is strongly conservative. 85.8% identify as conservative overall, half of them very conservative.
US Senate runoff
| Candidate | Support |
|---|---|
| Julia Letlow | 51.5% |
| John Fleming | 43.3% |
| Not sure / undecided | 5.2% |
Letlow crosses 50% outright, meaning Fleming would need to win essentially every remaining undecided voter and pull support away from her to close the gap in the final days.
