Republican Senate Candidate Claims Teenage Daughter Is Pregnant: Report by Reuters

A Republican from Louisiana who is running against Democratic U.S. Senator Mary Landrieu has disclosed that his unmarried teenage daughter is pregnant, according to a local newspaper report.

Bill Cassidy, a U.S. congressman and physician, is challenging Landrieu, who has been in office for three terms. This race is seen by Republicans as crucial in their efforts to regain control of the U.S. Senate.

In a statement shared with a New Orleans publication, Cassidy expressed, “Earlier this year, Laura and I learned we will become grandparents this summer. Our daughter now faces a more challenging future than her peers. She has our unconditional love and support.”

The Cassidy campaign did not respond immediately to inquiries for further comments.
