Graham’s Sister Steps In For Senate | US News
Description
Lindsey Graham’s sister, Darline Graham Nordone, has been tapped to temporarily fill his Senate seat after his sudden death at 71, marking a deeply personal and political transition. Close to her brother—she even appeared in his campaign ads and stood by him during his reelection bid—Nordone called the role an honor. Graham, who never married and had no children, had been her legal guardian since childhood. A special election looms, with a primary on August 11 and possible runoff on August 25, leaving just over two months for the GOP nominee to campaign before November’s general election. The seat, held by Graham for over 20 years, now becomes a major battleground for South Carolina conservatives. Preliminary reports indicate Graham died from an aortic dissection.
