Following the death of the Senator Graham, we now need to choose a nominee, via a Special Republican Primary, held pursuant to S.C. Code of Laws Section 7-11-55. This election will decide who is the next candidate to carry our Party's banner into the November 3, 2026 General Election. Whether you're considering running for office, volunteering, or casting your ballot, your participation is critical as we work to keep this U.S. Senate seat in Republican hands and continue fighting for the conservative values that make South Carolina strong.
