Credit union-supported Luke Letlow was named the winner of Saturday’s runoff election for Louisiana’s 5^th Congressional District. CUNA through its PAC, the Credit Union Legislative Action Council (CULAC), and the Louisiana Credit Union League supported Letlow, who defeated fellow Republican challenger Lance Harris with 62% of the vote.

Letlow will succeed retiring Rep. Ralph Abraham (R), for whom he served as chief of staff.

Letlow’s victory brings the number of credit union-supported candidates to win in the 2020 election to 387, more than a 96% success rate.
