Primary election is tomorrow, Tuesday June 10th with the potential for a run-off TWO weeks from tomorrow, June 24th.
the opposition dilutes their vote. he represents the old guard. All the others split up the opposition. Simple math. He’s better organized and the opposition needs to get some discipline.
The more pertinent question is, when is PBS going to be defunded?
Who cares. It’s pbs. Marxist garbage that we pay for.
I might be wrong, but me thinks the pundits will be eating crow this time tomorrow. I see very few Linda supporters here in the upstate.
Quick wrist action and lubricant.
With his left hand?
“Wonder how much this article cost him?”
Having driven thou much of South Carolina, i can tell you the Article is probably accurate. Graham has a enormous money advantage, and a sinister campaigning machine.
Furthermore you will mostly find his signs in places where Democrats are traditionally strongest which tells you Graham draws much of his support from Democrats that vote in the South Carolina Republican primary.
The Lack of a unifying Republican Opposition leader to Graham means we can’t rally our remaining forces against the Rino’s and and Dems who support Graham. Graham also campaigns to democrats in his appeal to voters on the grounds that he takes care of people.
Simply put taking out a well entrenched encumbrance is very difficult in any state, indeed if that incumbent has a high position or profile in Congress like a minority, majority, or otherwise leader It darn near impossible due to their access to money and power.
But Graham is a democrat in republican clothing, and the democrats of South Carolina know it.
Vote for anyone but this POC.
It all comes down to money and big rollers and corporations usually bankroll incumbents with a proven record - of pandering to them.
The poll sounds as if it’s close, but I’m not optimistic. I heard a sports radio talk show host in Columbia this morning — who makes occasional political remarks and presents himself on most issues as a conservative Republican — confidently express the opinion that Graham will win. Not that I think he’s a good prognosticator, but what’s significant is that he doesn’t even know that there’s a primary. He thinks Graham is running against liberal Republicans.
Low-information voters aren’t aware of the times Graham has undermined conservatives. They still think he’s a conservative. Recently he has been running some anti-Obama ads, and they’ll think they are voting against Obama when they vote for Graham. I hope I’m wrong, but I’ll be surprised if he doesn’t win over 50% of the votes.
