First, what is/are "the Midlands" as the term is used in the article?....is it a geographic, economic, or racial catagorization?
Second, how does Inez compare to the the guy that Graham beat last time out, as far as being "liberal" and other positions? As I recall, vaguely, up until the election, he was touted as being able to make it a close race....didn't pan out..
Thanks..
The Midlands are the Columbia area. Fairfield, Lexington, Newberry and Richland counties are considered the "midlands".
In 2002 Graham beat Alex Sanders, whose anti-death penalty ("capital punishment is contrary to the will of God") yet pro-choice ("abortion is a legitimate choice that a woman makes") stance is typical of the Left's moral relativism.
