Candidates vying for the late Senator Lindsey Graham's Senate seat will participate in a debate on Monday. The event will feature various candidates, including those with prior political experience and newcomers, who will attempt to present their qualifications to South Carolina voters. Approximately ten candidates have entered the race, but political analysts suggest that only a few are serious contenders. Political consultant Dave Wilson stated that the debate provides an opportunity for voters to hear directly from the candidates, describing it as a significant moment ahead of the primary election. Key candidates include Darline Graham, who was appointed to her brother's seat and has received an endorsement from former President Donald Trump, as well as Reps. Ralph Norman and Russell Fry, and former Governor Mark Sanford. Wilson noted that Fry may benefit the most from a strong debate performance, as he lacks the statewide recognition of some of his opponents.
