This market will resolve according to the candidate who receives the most valid votes from Lexington County in the Special Republican Primary Runoff for United States Senator from South Carolina, which is scheduled to be held on August 25, 2026. The named candidates will be primarily ranked by the number of valid votes received in the specified election. If two or more candidates are tied on valid votes, ties will be broken by alphabetical order of the candidates' last names. This market will resolve to the candidate that occupies the highest finishing position after applying this ranking. If the Lexington County results of this election are not definitively known by December 31, 2026, this market will resolve to "Other." This market will resolve based on a consensus of credible reporting. If there is ambiguity, this market will resolve based solely on the official results as reported by the government of South Carolina, including the Election Commission and the government of Lexington County.Darline Graham Nordone secured the Republican nomination in South Carolina’s special U.S. Senate primary runoff after Governor Henry McMaster appointed her to the interim seat following her brother Lindsey Graham’s death. President Trump’s early and sustained backing—including a Myrtle Beach rally and over $800,000 in super PAC spending on texts and calls—provided decisive momentum against five-term Representative Ralph Norman, who carried stronger Upstate support but trailed statewide. Key endorsements from Governor McMaster and Senator Tim Scott reinforced her position, while Norman’s local Lexington County GOP backing proved insufficient to overcome her broader county-level performance. With results largely reported by August 26, trader consensus reflects her decisive margins in most precincts, including Lexington, though late certifications or recount triggers remain formal possibilities in the narrow overall contest.
