Oconee’s Graham re-nominated

The political fortunes were kind to Oconee County’s Lindsey Graham—not only in his home county but across the state. And, according to the results announced last night, Graham scored a big enough victory to avoid a run-off with any of his six Republican challengers. It means Graham can advance to the November General Election, where a Democratic opponent will await. Oconee County voters gave Graham 5,614 votes—or 69% of the votes cast countywide.
