Graham: I’m Getting Killed Financially, They Hate Me

The Hill reports:

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) said on Fox News Thursday that he was “getting killed financially” by his Democratic opponent Jamie Harrison. “My opponent will raise $100 million in the state of South Carolina,” Graham said.

“The most money ever spent in the history of the state on a Senate race in this state was by me in 2014 when I spent $13 million. I’m being killed financially. This money is because they hate my guts.”

It wasn’t immediately clear what figure Graham was referring to, given that Harrison has raised just over $28 million as of the last Federal Election Commission filings in June, compared to Graham’s $29 million.
