Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., GOP senators rallied behind the appointment of Graham’s sister, Darline Graham Nordone, to temporarily fill her brother’s seat to represent South Carolina in the Senate. "She will do a great job," Sen. Roger Marshall told Fox News Digital. "She'll represent the same values that he represents." He continued, "She'll intuitively know how he would vote on particular issues, even if she doesn't know as much about it as he would have. I think that she'll be a strong vote up here for us, a strong American first conservative for South Carolina." LI
