For Immediate Release

May 27, 2008

Greenville, SC – Republican U.S. Senate Candidate Buddy Witherspoon defeated U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham in a straw poll that was conducted at the Greenville County Republican Stump Rally over the weekend.

According to Greenville County Republican officials, Buddy Witherspoon clearly won this poll and that it wasn’t even close. Though straw polls are not scientific, they are an indicator of who has momentum amongst those who are participating.

Buddy Witherspoon stated, “I am very pleased to have the support of many Republican activists, not just here in Greenville, but across the entire state. Our campaign has been gaining lots of momentum, and we are in a very good position to win the Republican Primary on June 10th.”
From http://schotlinepress.wordpress.com/2008/05/28/republican-challenger-buddy-witherspoon-defeats-us-senator-lindsey-graham-in-greenville-county-republican-straw-poll/

Dan Herren, Witherspoon’s Campaign Manager added, “It’s very disappointing that Senator Graham chose to spend his free time in Arizona over the weekend, instead of taking the opportunity to meet with South Carolinians face to face. Maybe if Senator Graham actually spent his free time in South Carolina, he would do better in the polls amongst the Republican activists and party faithful.”

The South Carolina Republican Primary will be held June 10th 2008.

What are the polls showing? Is there any chance that we can get rid of "A Boy Named Sue Lindsey"?

there's no better person to donate to. Lindsey MUST GO.
remember Witherspoon is fighting the RNC and GOP who will dump big money to keep this RINO in power.
Conservatives make you voice heard. It can be done

Witherspoon definitely has my vote, and will get some of my $ before November. Lindsey Graham does not represent me or most South Carolinians. We have long memories down here, and Lindsey will figure that out Tuesday night. Unfortunately i have to be on a plane to Tacoma, WA (Indian country for sure) Wednesday morning so i won’t get to revel in his defeat in the beautiful Palmetto state.
