Trump returns to South Carolina to rally for Darline Graham
A new poll shows Graham and Annie Andrews tied at 48%, increasing Republican concern that Trump’s backing may not hold the seat.
- President Donald Trump holds a rally in South Carolina on Thursday to support Republican Darline Graham, his second visit in two weeks for the Senate candidate locked in a toss-up race.
- Trump appointed Graham to finish the term of her late brother, Senator Lindsey Graham, who died in July, then pressured her to run for a full six-year term and endorsed her candidacy.
- A New York Times/Siena poll released Wednesday shows Graham tied with Democrat Annie Andrews at 48 percent each, with only 80 percent of Republicans backing Graham versus 97 percent of Democrats supporting Andrews.
- Frustrated Republicans have turned on the campaign; Representative Nancy Mace called it a 'train wreck', while Representative Ralph Norman criticized Trump's heavy-handed involvement as force-feeding the candidate to voters.
- Though South Carolina has not elected a Democrat to the Senate this century, the toss-up race now threatens that streak, with Trump's repeated visits signaling concern about a once-safe Republican seat.
