Republican voters in South Carolina return to the polls Tuesday for the second time in two months to decide who will take the place of the late Sen. Lindsey Graham.
The president backs Graham’s sister, but each contender in South Carolina’s Senate primary has found themselves out of step with him in some way, and a runoff is likely.
U.S. Senate candidates will meet in a South Carolina Republican primary debate.
Nexstar Media Group is slated to host a live debate on Aug. 4 featuring the GOP Senate candidates running for the South Carolina seat vacated by the late Sen. Lindsey Graham (R). The debate, which will air on all of Nexstar’s stations in the state, will take place Tuesday from 7 p.m. to 8 p.m. EDT and will be broadcast from the News 2 studios in Mount Pleasant, just outside Charleston, S.C.
