by Live 5 Web Staff

CHARLESTON, S.C. (WCSC) — Darline Graham, the sister of the late South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham, told Fox News on Monday that she will run for a full Senate term.

“I’ve been praying a lot,” she told Fox’s Sean Hannity. “... I feel like I can do it. I feel an inner peace about it... I’ve made a decision. I’m in.”

The decision comes days after President Donald Trump urged Graham to run for a full Senate term following the unexpected death of her brother earlier this month.

South Carolina Gov. Henry McMaster appointed Graham to serve out the remainder of her brother’s term, which was to end at the beginning of next year.
