Senator Lindsey Graham Dies
Death of a key GOP leader impacts Senate math and policy.
Event Overview
Senator Lindsey Graham of South Carolina died on July 11 at age 71 following a brief illness caused by an aortic tear. Following his death, Governor Henry McMaster appointed Graham's sister, Darline Graham Nordone, to finish his term, while South Carolina will use a primary and potential runoff to select a Republican nominee for the November election. His passing, combined with Senator Mitch McConnell's hospitalization, has temporarily eroded the Republican Senate majority and created partisan ties on the Budget and Appropriations committees.
