President Donald Trump has urged Darline Graham Nordone, the sister of the late Senator Lindsey Graham, to seek election to the Senate seat she was recently appointed to fill. Graham Nordone was appointed to serve out the remainder of her brother's term after his death. Trump encouraged her to run in South Carolina's special Republican primary for the seat. Graham Nordone has not yet announced whether she will follow the president's advice and enter the race. The special primary will determine the Republican nominee for the upcoming special election to fill the seat. The late Senator Lindsey Graham had represented South Carolina in the Senate for many years. His passing left a vacancy that state officials filled by appointing his sister. Now, the decision rests with Graham Nordone on whether to seek a full term. The special election will be held later this year, and the Republican primary is expected to draw several candidates. Trump's endorsement could be a significant factor in the race if Graham Nordone decides to run.
