The special election in South Carolina to fill the seat of Senator Lindsey Graham is today. The polls close at 7:00pm ET in South Carolina and for President Trump there is a significant stake.
The opposition media are hoping that Ralph Norman defeats President Trump endorsed candidate Darline Graham so they can write about articles about how Trump has lost his political strength and now suffers election embarrassment. President Trump not only endorsed Darline Graham, but he also held a rally for her last Friday and instructed his SuperPAC to fund her campaign heavily.
No one is sure how this special election is going to turn out. What I find interesting is the lack of publicly displayed and discussed polling over the past week. That doesn’t mean polls were not conducted, it only means conducted polls were never made public. This one will be super interesting to watch unfold this evening.

Should Darline Graham win she retains the entire staff of her deceased brother, Lindsey Graham, who have been guiding her as an interim appointed senator. The South Caroline old guard GOP also has a stake in this race as the professionally republican political class are not very supportive of President Trump and the MAGA coalition.
Consider this an open discussion thread for anything that relates to the special election and South Carolina politics. There is also voting in primary voting in Georgia and Oklahoma. We will pin this thread to the top of the page until the final results are complete.
If Ms Nordone wins in the final vote her first task will be to fly to Kiev .
I’m sure you’re right… Darline is definitely the warmonger choice. Lindsey Graham’s Liberty Score from Conservative Review is 43% (an F grade). He voted for Merrick Garland and even in recent years, he criticized the concept of mass deportation as impractical and argued for guestworker programs. I could go on and on with examples of how he betrayed America First.
Most likely she will continue the shameful record of her brother.
maybe Z already furnish apartment for this beauty….
I’m team Ralph Norman.
so is me..no more warmongers !!!
Rino on Rino. Haven’t seen anything from either one that makes me believe they’ll be any better than someone like Thune.
I found it hard to pick who I WANT to win in this one.
I would not be surprised if Norman ekes it out.
In addition to not seeing any polls, I have also notice a complete absence of any reporting about today’s turnout.
” they ” DO NOT WANT a SPOT LIGHT on the VOTE
ALSO
The LOWER The VOLUME the BETTER to Be OVERLOOKED
No reporting allowed until the polls close at 7:00 PM EST.
They just closed, so the results should start rolling in – https://www.postandcourier.com/politics/election-results-republican-primary-runoff-senate-graham-norman/article_3c4226a9-1171-4c67-8c47-5c37d22d7678.html
The early voting was slightly higher (~1000 votes) than the recent special election.
The warmonger, Lindsey Graham, neither helped president Trump nor the people in Ukraine/Russia who need to see an end to the war. He was certainly no moral role model for Americans but the same applies to many of the current politicians.
Just say NO to the establishment GOP. Anything these corrupt establishment Rinos are for, I oppose.
hell, free and fair elections being something of the far distant past, anything happening in this corrupted process is suspect
what is certain is the one installed is the candidate who can be relied upon to block the maga agenda most
Since I don’t live in SC, all I know is, I just don’t know.
Don’t worry, most of us in the state feel the same way.
At least the pro Graham (NEVER Nordone) flyers will stop, either for a few weeks if she wins or forever if she (hopefully) loses.
Norman is too glib-something about him is not MAGA. Darlene supports my president Trump. She said it over and over. I hope she wins.
I’m waiting for the expose tell all book by Graham’s boy toy to hit the shelves.
“What I find interesting is the lack of publicly displayed and discussed polling over the past week. That doesn’t mean polls were not conducted, it only means conducted polls were never made public.”
There is only one reason they don’t make them public, they don’t like the results of the poll. Polling seems to more about propaganda these days.
Darline Grahamnesty is a no-nothing puppet of the Lindsey Grahamnesty machine.
Ralph Norman is a Professional RINO and a card carrying member of the UniParty.
Aunt Bee vs Howard Sprague would truly be a better choice.
