YOUTUBE (The Hill) - Watch live: McMaster announces Senate appointment for Graham's seat
South Carolina Gov. Henry McMaster (R) is set to announces his pick to fill the remainder of Sen. Lindsey Graham's (R) Senate term after his unexpected death over the weekend. Graham, who easily won his primary election last month, died Saturday of an aortic dissection, preliminary findings found. President Trump suggested Monday that Graham's sister Darline Graham Nordone should replace the her brother as senator. A handful of South Carolina Republicans have expressed interest in the open seat. A special primary election will be held Aug. 11 to take on Democrat Annie Andrews in the general election this fall. #lindseygraham #southcarolina #senate
