US Senator Lindsey Graham, who unexpectedly died Saturday at the age of 71 from a ruptured aorta, will be succeeded by his sister, Darline Graham Nordone. The 62-year-old Nordone, who previously worked as an optician and for government agencies, will be sworn in today and will hold the position until the end of Graham's term in January. The Governor of South Carolina announced the decision yesterday, after President Trump recommended the appointment as a "beautiful tribute to Lindsey."
