Graham’s Passing Sets Up Tight SC Special Election | Charleston News
Description
Senator Lindsey Graham’s passing has triggered a fast-moving political scramble in South Carolina, with Governor McMaster set to appoint a temporary replacement—leading to a special election to choose the Republican nominee. Candidates can file as early as July 21, with the primary slated for August 11; a runoff, if needed, would follow two weeks later. Crucially, the special primary is open to all voters, regardless of their June 9 primary choice. The winner will then face Democratic nominee Annie Andrews in the November general election. Andrews has issued a heartfelt statement honoring Graham’s legacy and urging unity in mourning. With a tight timeline and high stakes, the race to fill the seat is already heating up.
