Sen. Darline Graham defeated Rep. Ralph Norman for the Republican nomination for Senate in South Carolina, a victory that was also one for President Donald Trump, who pushed for her to stay on in the seat held recently by her late brother.
The Associated Press called the race at 9:02 p.m. Tuesday for Graham, whom Trump endorsed, campaigned for and backed with an $800,0000 last-minute effort from MAGA Inc. to turn out her voters.
“We got the vote out where we needed to,” senior Trump political adviser James Blair told NOTUS. “Great win for the President and for Darline.”
