South Carolina Republicans hope GOP unity will help pull Sen. Darline Graham past the finish line as the political newcomer has found herself in a competitive race against Democrat Dr. Annie Andrews.

Supporters of President Donald Trump came to Rock Hill to see him Thursday, on a visit aimed to boost the candidacy of Darline Graham for U.S. Senate. But little of the conversation was about Graham.

President Trump is holding a second general election rally for Sen. Darline Graham in South Carolina Oct. 29, this time in Rock Hill — the home of her ex-primary challenger, Congressman Ralph Norman.

President Donald Trump held a rally in South Carolina amid early voting to help boost GOP turnout in the midterm election, particularly for Sen. Darline Graham in what may be a tight Senate race.

Several factors are giving Democrats hope in winning the U.S. Senate seat formerly held by the late Sen. Lindsey Graham for the first time since 1998.

Sen. Darline Graham accepted Annie Andrew’s debate challenge. They will face off Oct. 11 at SCETV in Columbia.
