Jaime Harrison, the South Carolina Democrat who is working to boot Republican Lindsey Graham from his Senate seat is on a great fundraising streak, according to an announcement from his campaign.

The Hill reports that Harrison has raised more than $3.5 million in the last three months of 2019, an achievement that his campaign is claiming is the most that any South Carolina Democratic challenger has ever raised.

The campaign said that Harrison raked in donations from voters in all 46 of South Carlina’s counties, and also comes from more than 112,000 contributions.

And, according to the Post and Courier, that figure topped the record Graham set in the quarter before.

What we need is a Republican to unseat the Democrat in an R jersey.

Harrison to Soros and Son: “Gosh, thanks you guys. I’ll spend it wisely, believe me.”

Money from honest voters contributions: $1,110.

SOROS money.....meted out by surrogates in smaller amounts.

Graham has been too effective in the Senate against the leftist liberal fasiosts who tried unsuccessfully to stop the Kavanaugh appointment to SCOTUS. Lindsey stepped up and became a target then. Now they are after him, the same way they went after Col Alan West, for example , by redistricting him out of his support in Florida, same as they did with Speaker Tom DeLAy through a bogus law suit on fundraising..

Regardless what you think of Graham, its time to support our side rather than let his Senate seat go to the left.After all Lindsey did step up and has on a number of signal issues.

It doesn’t matter how much anyone can raise. It’s what their message is. A candidate in a VW bus and a bull horn could win if he/she has the right message.

It was the GOP that targeted Alan West.

South Carolina and Arizona are both enigmatic to me. On paper they seem to be sound conservative states. Well, in practice they tend to send utter RINOs in to Congress, and Arizona went Dem for their last Senator. Why can’t an actual conservative rise in either state?

The Republican Party in South Carolina is quite happy with Lindsey. They do not care at all that he supports democrat initiatives by his comments and actions on a regular basis. All they care about is that he is an "R".

Most SC people are not political and pay little attention to the details of politics. Only a politician with high name recognition could unseat Lindsey, and the state Republican Party is not interested in supporting one.

If a democrat should unseat Lindsey, that person would be hard to unseat.
