SC Senate race tests Trump influence with no clear frontrunner to replace Graham
TL;DR Summary
South Carolina’s special Senate primary to replace Lindsey Graham features four GOP contenders and no obvious Trump-backed frontrunner, as endorsements shift and Trump’s involvement remains uncertain. Darline Graham, Russell Fry, Ralph Norman, and Mark Sanford all align with many Trump policies, but have varied voting records and histories with the former president; a runoff seems likely since none may hit 50% on Tuesday, with turnout expected to be low among core GOP voters. Trump plans a tele-rally, but a dual endorsement in the runoff is not guaranteed.
