A former top donor to Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) and business executive is jumping across the aisle to support Democrat Jaime Harrison in South Carolina’s Senate race.

Richard Wilkerson, the former chairman and president of Michelin’s operations in North America, said he has known Harrison for years and is confident he can “bring lasting economic opportunity to the people of South Carolina.”

...that should be the South Carolina Democratic Party's main focus. And really, it should be their only focus. The KY Governor's race laid bare exactly what happens when Democrats vote in numbers. If SC saved the Biden campaign, thanks to Jim Clyburn, it can equally bury Lindsey Graham's.

No GOP incumbents deserve to be re-elected this year. NOT ONE.
Best of luck to Jaime Harrison and South Carolina Democrats!
