Democrats see glimmer of hope in South Carolina after Darline Graham's win

Darline Graham has won the Republican nomination for the US Senate in South Carolina. She is the sister of the late Senator Lindsey Graham. According to The Guardian US, despite concerns about her lack of experience, she was backed by President Donald Trump and will appear on the November ballot.

President Donald Trump secured two significant victories in Republican runoffs, with his preferred candidates winning in South Carolina and Oklahoma, according to RTE News, El Pais English, and France 24. These wins interrupt a challenging period for Trump, who had seen 10 of his endorsed candidates lose Republican contests previously.

In South Carolina, Darline Graham defeated Ralph Norman, as reported by Le Monde English, citing projections from CNN and NBC. Graham will now compete for a Senate seat in November.
