South Carolina Senate debate set as candidates and callers weigh in.
Published 3 weeks, 6 days ago
Description
Host Charlie James opens the segment by announcing an upcoming October 11 Senate debate between Republican candidate Darling Graham and Democratic opponent Dr. Annie Andrews on Gray Media stations. A recent poll indicates a tight race, showing Graham with just over a two-point lead. Charlie expresses concern over Gray Media requiring candidates to sign an exclusive non-compete agreement, arguing public servants should not be restricted from participating in debates on other stations. Callers join the program to express frustration over the lack of visible campaign advertising from Graham compared to Andrews, discuss the impact of a third-party write-in campaign for Ralph Norman, and voice skepticism over the South Carolina GOP's current strategy. Additionally, Charlie notes Mitch McConnell's continued absence from the Senate as it reconvenes after three months.
