“Put it all together, and that is 10 Republicans guaranteed to leave the Senate before any votes are cast in November.”
(Byron York – Townhall) One of the colder aspects of life in Washington politics is that the death of an important person often results, before much grieving is done, in a frenzy of speculation about who will get the unfortunate important person’s job. So it is with South Carolina Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham, whose death set off an immediate “frenzy” of guessing who would fill his post both in the short and long term.
South Carolina Gov. Henry McMaster answered the first part of the question quickly, appointing the late senator’s sister, Darline Graham Nordone, to serve the remainder of Graham’s term, which lasts until Jan. 3, 2027. The second answer, on who will be the next full-term senator from South Carolina, will come after a special primary in August and the general election in November.
