Trump-backed Darline Graham wins South Carolina runoff, defeats Ralph Norman

U.S. Senator Darlene Graham has won the Republican nomination to keep her late brother's South

Carolina Senate seat. Graham defeated Congressman Ralph Norman in Tuesday's runoff after neither

won the 50 percent needed to take the nod outright earlier this month. Graham had never held political

office before Governor Henry McMaster appointed her to serve out the remainder of her brother

Lindsey Graham's term following his death last month. She's won the backing of President Trump

who campaigned for her in South Carolina last week. Now with Norman conceding

Graham quickly turns her attention to November. We cannot and must not allow Democratic Socialists

to gain a foothold in our conservative state like South Carolina. Liberals believe if they

can defeat conservatives in South Carolina, then they can defeat us anywhere. Once again

they're coming for us and the South Carolina values we hold dear. Graham will face Democratic

nominee Annie Andrews in the general and Trump's endorsement paid off in another runoff Tuesday

night. Former state senator and Tulsa businessman Mike Mazai narrowly won the Republican nomination

for Oklahoma governor. Trump backed Mazai and attacked his opponent, State Attorney General

Gettner Drummond in the closing days of the race. Mazai also poured millions of his own money into

his campaign. He'll face Democratic State Representative Cindy Munson in November. And in Alaska, yes, there will be two Dan Sullivans in the November Senate ballot

Former teacher Dan J. Sullivan has advanced to face Republican Senator Dan S. Sullivan

Democrat Mary Peltola, and one other candidate not named Dan in the general election
