Sen. Darline Graham took the oath of office Tuesday to fill the vacancy left by the unexpected death of her older brother, four-term Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham. The late Graham died Saturday night at age of 71 of an aortic dissection, according to preliminary findings by the D.C. medical examiner.
South Carolina Republican Gov. Henry McMaster announced Darline Graham’s appointment Monday, hours after President Donald Trump recommended her for the seat.
