Scott backs Graham as an 'easy choice' despite debate stumble

Sen. Tim Scott endorsed Darline Graham in South Carolina’s special Senate runoff, calling her an 'easy choice' and expressing strong confidence in her readiness despite a viral debate moment where she admitted limited national-security expertise. The endorsement, tied to Trump support and NRSC messaging, highlights GOP efforts across key races while politics around Islamophobia concerns and other races (e.g., El-Sayed, Paxton) also feature in the broader coverage.

Sanders withholds endorsement in Wisconsin gubernatorial bid

Sen. Bernie Sanders said on Pod Save America that he doesn’t expect to endorse Francesca Hong, the Democratic Socialist of America member running for Wisconsin governor, explaining he’s not that familiar with the race and has been focused on the Senate. He noted he hasn’t been involved in many governors’ races beyond Maine, where he endorsed Troy Jackson. The remark drew social-media mockery and commentary about his past endorsements; Hong’s campaign remains competitive in the primary and is expected to advance to a November race against Republican David Tiffany.

Trump backs both SC GOP hopefuls to avoid another primary setback

President Donald Trump endorsed both Pam Evette and Alan Wilson in South Carolina’s Republican governor runoff, saying he can’t hurt either by picking one and calling both “MAGA and America First.” Evette led the June 9 primary but won less than 30% and will face Wilson in the June 23 runoff, a race in which Wilson has also drawn support from former rivals and Sen. Tim Scott.
