库克政治报告将南卡参议员选举评级调向民主党 选情趋紧
《库克政治报告》10月20日将南卡罗来纳州联邦参议员选举的评级由"共和党大概率获胜"下调为"共和党略占优势"，这是不到一个月内该席位第二次向民主党方向移动。分析师杰西卡·泰勒（Jessica Taylor）指出，民主党候选人安妮·安德鲁斯医生（Dr. AnnieAndrews）第三季度筹款940万美元，大幅领先共和党候选人达琳·格雷厄姆（DarlineGraham）的150万美元；与此同时，共和党参议员领导力基金已投入至少500万美元支持格雷厄姆。
达琳·格雷厄姆由州长亨利·麦克马斯特任命，接替其已故兄长、前参议员林赛·格雷厄姆留下的席位。近期民调显示选情胶着：特拉法加民调（10月19日公布）为格雷厄姆49%、安德鲁斯46%，拉斯穆森民调为49%对45%，另一家机构的民调则为46%对45%，处于统计误差之内。
南卡自1998年以来未曾选出民主党籍联邦参议员，该州提前投票已经开始。
Cook Political Report Shifts South Carolina Senate Race Toward Democrats as Contest Tightens
The Cook Political Report has moved South Carolina's U.S. Senate race from "Likely Republican" to "Lean Republican," its second shift toward Democrats in less than a month, according to the Andrews campaign as reported by Holy City Sinner.
Democrat Andrews's campaign said it raised $9.4 million in the third quarter against $1.5 million for Senator Darline Graham, while a Senate leadership fund has committed at least $5 million on the Republican side. Recent polls are tight: Trafalgar 49-46, Rasmussen 49-45 and InsiderAdvantage 46-45.
South Carolina has not elected a Democratic senator since 1998. Darline Graham, sister of the late Senator Lindsey Graham, was appointed by Governor Henry McMaster on July 13 after Lindsey Graham's death on July 11, and was sworn in on July 14; she is running to keep the seat in the November 3 election.
