Democrats look to build on party's success in South Carolina

Season 2026 Episode 228 | 6m 09s

One of the stunning upsets of last week’s election was in South Carolina, where Democrat Annie Andrews defeated incumbent Republican Darline Graham in the Senate race. That wasn’t the only Democratic victory in the deep red state. Democrats also flipped a House seat and flipped 10 seats in the state house. Geoff Bennett discussed more with South Carolina’s Democratic Party chair, Christale Spain.
