Sen. Darline Graham, R-S.C., and Democratic challenger Annie Andrews clashed on Sunday night during the South Carolina U.S. Senate debate, which also included Libertarian candidate Kasie Whitener.
Graham said she is „concerned about the socialist Democrats,“ asserting that after Hamas terrorists slaughtered Israelis on Oct. 7, 2023, Democrats in New York cheered „over the death of over a thousand people.“
„Annie Andrews will not stand up to the socialist Democratic Party. She’s only going to join them,“ Graham declared.
Andrews fired back, claiming that she is willing to stand up to her party.
„I told you my opponent was going to call me a socialist and there she’s done it again. She’s been told to come out here and call me Bernie, Ocasio, Mamdani. That’s what’s in her script,“ Andrews said, referring to Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., and New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani.
„But the truth is my name is Annie Andrews. And there shouldn’t be any confusion about that because unlike my opponent, I haven’t changed my name recently,“ she said.

„The real difference between me and Sen. Graham is that I will stand up to my own party and I will always put South Carolina first. She seems to believe the job she has right now is to be the White House’s ambassador to South Carolina. The job is to represent South Carolina. She considers the job to be to read their scripts and do their bidding. And we can do better,“ Andrews asserted.
Graham fired back, saying that her „legal name is Graham“ and „has always been Graham.“ She explained, „I lost my parents when I was a little girl, and I kept the name Graham so that I felt connected to them. So my name, every document I have ever signed, has Graham on it.“
After the death of Sen. Lindsey Graham, South Carolina Gov. Henry McMaster tapped the late lawmaker’s sister Darline to serve the remainder of her brother’s Senate term.
