Rep. Ralph Norman has announced his run in the special primary to fill the late Senator Lindsey Graham's seat, reaffirming his commitment to President Trump's America First agenda and the fight to restore constitutional principles.
South Carolina Republican Rep. Ralph Norman announced Saturday his intention to run in the special primary election to fill the U.S. Senate seat left vacant by the late Senator Lindsey Graham, a true conservative champion. Norman, who represents the state’s 5th district, told Fox News he is determined to advance the 'SAVE America Act' and is committed to supporting efforts to eliminate the filibuster, a tool often abused by the radical left to block progress and stifle the will of the people.
Norman acknowledged that President Donald Trump has endorsed Senator Darline Graham, Lindsey Graham’s sister, who was appointed by Governor Henry McMaster to serve the remainder of the term. Trump’s endorsement of Graham reflects his ongoing commitment to strong, principled leadership in Washington. Norman, showing respect for the President, sought Trump’s blessing but remains steadfast in his campaign, demonstrating the healthy competition and dedication to conservative ideals within the Republican Party.
Other potential Republican contenders, including Lt. Gov. Pamela Evette and Rep. Nancy Mace, have been mentioned but have not yet filed, as the party seeks the strongest candidate to uphold South Carolina’s proud conservative legacy. Candidates must submit paperwork by July 21, and the primary will take place on August 11, offering voters a clear choice to defend American values.
