(opens the publisher’s site)Democrat Annie Andrews defeated Trump-backed Darline Graham in Tuesday's midterm election, flipping South Carolina's US Senate seat to Democrats for the first time since 1998.
- Andrews's win makes her South Carolina's first Democratic senator since 1998 and the state's first female senator.
- Graham was appointed in July to finish her late brother Lindsey Graham's term and won the primary with Trump's endorsement.
- Andrews said in her victory speech the Senate seat "doesn't belong to one family, one party, or to Washington, DC."
- Andrews said Graham called her on election night to congratulate her on the win.
