AG Jeff Landry holds campaign rally in Bossier City with Donald Trump Jr. in attendance

BOSSIER CITY, La. (KSLA) - As Election Day in Louisiana approaches, many candidates are holding rallies to garner support from voters.

On Wednesday, Sept. 13, Attorney General Jeff Landry, who is running for governor, made a stop in Bossier City for his Get Out the Vote Rally. He was joined by special guest, Donald Trump Jr. and country music stars, Gary LeVox and Tracy Lawrence.

The rally was held Wednesday evening at The Stage at Silver Star in Bossier City. Landry also recently held a rally and country music concert in Baton Rouge at the Texas Club.

Former president, Donald Trump, and his son, Donald Trump Jr., have both endorsed Landry in the governor’s race.

An attendee came from Monroe to watch the event.
