Darline Lettie Graham Nordone \u2013 appointed last week to fill the Senate seat of her late brother, Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) \u2013 is raising eyebrows over what one critic called a “sinister” move in her apparent bid to hold the seat for a full term.<\/p>\n

Graham died<\/u> unexpectedly earlier this month from a sudden illness, later determined<\/u> to likely be related to a heart issue. At the recommendation<\/u> of President Donald Trump, South Carolina GOP Gov. Henry McMaster appointed Graham\u2019s sister, Nordone, to fill the vacant seat on an interim basis. <\/p>\n

Trump later endorsed Nordone to run for the seat, and she officially announced<\/u> her bid for office on Monday. That same day, Nordone promoted<\/u> the launch of her campaign on social media, directing followers to her campaign website<\/u>, which notably referenced her name as only \u201cDarline Graham.\u201d<\/p>\n

In 2006, then-Darline Lettie Graham, 41, married<\/u> Lawrence Andrew Nordone, with whom she has two daughters<\/u>. On Nordone\u2019s campaign website, there exists no mention that Nordone is married, and her name is listed only as \u201cDarline Graham,\u201d a detail that left political commentator and Democratic strategist Keith Edwards stunned.<\/p>\n

\u201cLol she dropped her married name,\u201d Edwards, who previously served<\/u> as the communications director for the Lincoln Project during the 2020 election, wrote Tuesday in a social media post<\/u> on X to his more than 178,000 followers. \u201cSinister.\u201d<\/p>\n

Trump\u2019s endorsement of Nordone left South Carolina\u2019s GOP leadership fuming<\/u>, largely over the uncertainty surrounding her political views or ideology, as she\u2019s largely led a private life<\/u> and never held a seat as an elected official.<\/p>\n

\u201cOnce we saw the president jump in and support her, 95 percent are saying, ‘What the hell are we doing here?\u2019\u201d said<\/u> CJ Westfall, the chair of the Dorchester County GOP. \u201cWe don’t know how she votes. We don’t know what she believes.\u201d<\/p>\n
