Darline Graham Nordone was sworn into the Senate on Tuesday to fill the seat of her late brother, Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC), who died unexpectedly over the weekend.
South Carolina Gov. Henry McMaster (R) appointed her Monday to serve the remainder of her brother's term, which ends in January 2027.
Sen. Graham, who was seeking reelection in November, died Saturday night of an aortic dissection at the age of 71.
Republicans will now hold a special primary Aug. 11 to choose a new nominee to face Democrat Annie Andrews in the general election.
