Annie Andrews Beats Darline Graham in South Carolina Senate Race

Democrat Annie Andrews just pulled off a stunning upset by defeating Darline Graham in South Carolina. She is the first Democrat to win a Senate race in the state since nineteen ninety-eight. Some sources note the seat has not been held by a democratic party member since nineteen sixty-four. President Donald Trump carried the state by eighteen points in twenty twenty-four. Graham was appointed to the seat in July after the death of her brother, longtime Senator Lindsey Graham. Trump gave her his complete endorsement and campaigned for her twice in late October. Andrews raised nearly eleven million dollars and made healthcare costs central to her campaign. Voters split their tickets on Tuesday, backing Republican Alan Wilson for governor while choosing Andrews for the Senate.
