Sen. Darline Graham, sister of the late Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham, announced she’ll run for a full term for her brother’s old South Carolina seat.
“I’ve made a decision,” Darline Graham told Fox News’ Sean Hannity in an interview, according to a clip released Monday afternoon. “I’m in.”
Graham was sworn in last week to replace her brother, who died just over a week ago. Her appointment, backed by President Donald Trump, was widely seen as a move to fill the seat with a caretaker who would leave Washington at the end of the term in January.

But Trump announced Friday he would endorse Graham should she run for the full term in a special primary Aug. 11. “RUN, DARLINE, RUN!” Trump wrote in a Truth Social post.
