If he is so unpopular, why was he reelected this election instead of his opponent?
“If he is so unpopular, why was he reelected this election instead of his opponent?”
Because democrats by the tens of thousands register as Republicans and vote for Graham. It’s why the rat opponent running against Graham rarely gets more than 38% of the vote.
I meant that he’s unpopular with Republicans (I think he only got renominated with about 59% of the vote if memory serves). Plus, most voters in SC wouldn’t vote Democrat so just being an R gets you lots of votes. Even still, while Tim Scott was getting more than 60% of the vote, Graham got only 54%
