Recent reporting and announcements directly related to this race and its candidates.
The biggest recent development is that Darline Graham and Annie Andrews have agreed to debate on October 11 in Columbia. Andrews has been using child care affordability as a campaign theme and is pushing for more televised debates. The updates are mostly about campaign positioning rather than a clear change in the race. The debate agreement gives both candidates a clearer general-election stage, but the news is mostly procedural. It does not clearly shift the race, though Andrews’ debate push may help her visibility.
The polls open today in Spartanburg County for the midterm elections, with highly anticipated seats being voted on. Here’s everything you need to know for Nov. 3.
Polls open across South Carolina from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. as voters head to the ballot box to decide critical statewide and congressional contests, including races for governor, attorney general, the U.S. Senate and South Carolina’s 1st Congressional District.
The party is in the midst of a remarkable comeback—mostly thanks to one man.

U.S. Senate Candidate Annie Andrews holds final campaign rally on Election Eve

The surveys, conducted late last month by The New York Times and Siena University, place Democratic candidates ahead of Republicans in seven critical states.
Approximately 54 million Americans have offered a glimpse into the midterm election, which is seeing an uptick in younger and racially diverse voters.
Michigan Democrat Abdul El-Sayed’s former opponent in the U.S. Senate primary, Haley Stevens, stunned party officials on Sunday by endorsing Republican Mike Rogers in the general election contest after Democratic tensions boiled over. The move came after Stevens was uninvited to a joint event the same day with El-Sayed as he campaigned for the Michigan seat. The outcome could help determine the balance of power on Capitol Hill.
Is a ruby-red state up for grabs?
Dr. Annie Andrews, the Democratic South Carolina Senate race candidate, pledges to ban congressional stock trading, make no tax on tips permanent and end Congress pay during shutdowns.
