Graham’s Sister Set to Fill Senate Seat | Global News

In a surprising and emotional move, President Trump is pushing for Darline Nordone, the late Senator Lindsey Graham’s sister, to temporarily fill his Senate seat — a tribute to their unbreakable bond forged through childhood loss and lifelong devotion. Graham, who died suddenly from an aortic tear, never married or had children, and Nordone, who was raised by him after losing her parents as a teen, has been a steadfast presence in his political life. While South Carolina Governor Henry McMaster is set to announce the interim appointee soon, several GOP candidates are already eyeing the seat for November’s election. Senator Tim Scott backs Nordone as a “wonderful placeholder,” and a press conference is scheduled to honor Graham’s legacy — though Nordone herself has remained silent on the matter.
