Rep. Ralph Norman states his family will not support Sen. Darline Graham
Rep. Ralph Norman (R-S.C.) confirmed in a radio interview that while he intends to support Sen. Darline Graham in the upcoming election, his family members do not plan to vote for her. Norman emphasized that he remains committed to supporting Republican candidates despite the internal disagreement.
During a recent appearance on “The Nashional Briefing with Kelly Nash,” Representative Ralph Norman addressed the upcoming November 3 election and his stance regarding Senator Darline Graham. Norman, who previously competed against Graham in a GOP primary, stated that he is keeping his promise to support the Republican nominee at the ballot box.
However, Norman clarified that his support for the Senator is not shared by his own family. He explicitly stated, “My family is not going to vote for Darline Graham,” highlighting a divide between his public political commitment to party unity and the personal voting preferences of his household. While Norman reiterated his broader commitment to backing Republican candidates in South Carolina, the admission underscores the friction present within the party following the primary contest. The report from The Hill focuses on this internal party dynamic, noting that Norman’s public stance is a deliberate effort to maintain party loyalty despite the lack of consensus within his own family circle.
