I'm Brandon Brown and I'm Running for Senate to Beat Lindsey Graham [1]

I’m Brandon Brown, and I’m running for the United States Senate because South Carolina deserves a Senator who will fight for working families and speak the truth—even when it’s hard. Lindsey Graham used to call himself a man of principle. Now, he’s just a puppet for Donald Trump, voting in lockstep with the chaos and corruption that’s poisoned our politics and hurt our people.
Graham led the charge on the so-called “One Big Beautiful Bill”—a corporate giveaway that adds $3.3 trillion to the national debt, raises prescription drug prices, and guts funding for Medicaid and rural hospitals. That means fewer ERs, higher costs for families, and more profits for billionaires. And he had the nerve to call it a victory. He also co-sponsored a national abortion ban, ignoring South Carolinians who believe those decisions should be made between a woman and her doctor—not by Washington politicians. And when Trump smeared John McCain—Graham’s supposed best friend—he raised a glass and stayed silent. If he won’t defend someone he called a brother, he won’t defend you.
Chip in to help me beat Lindsey Graham!
I was born and raised in Greenville, and I’m as Southern as they come. I’m a small business owner, a man of faith, and a proud advocate for our HBCUs. I believe in barbecue, church on Sunday, and checking in on your neighbors. And while I was taught to mind my manners, I’ll tell you straight: Lindsey Graham has got to go. Our families can’t afford his cowardice or his loyalty to Donald Trump.
I’ve always served my community—whether it's standing with grieving families in my funeral home or helping students succeed through higher education. I believe compassion is a strength, not a weakness—and it's time we had a Senator who lives by that.
This moment demands moral clarity. It demands courage. And it demands someone who won’t back down from a fight. I’m ready to take this fight all the way to Washington—and I’ll be making Lindsey Graham’s political life miserable until November 2026. Because our future is worth more than his loyalty to Trump—and South Carolina deserves so much better.
I would be honored to have you beside me in this journey.
Brandon Brown
Candidate for U.S. Senate
