两党前南卡罗来纳州州长联袂支持安德鲁斯竞选参议员 两党前南卡罗来纳州州长周一联袂支持民主党人安妮·安德鲁斯，反对参议员达琳·格雷厄姆（共和党人）在该州参议院选举中的竞争。
Bipartisan pair of former South Carolina governors endorse Andrews for Senate A bipartisan pair of former South Carolina governors endorsed Democrat Annie Andrews over Sen. Darline Graham (R) in the state’s Senate election.
前南卡罗来纳州州长大卫·比斯利（共和党人）和吉姆·霍奇斯（民主党人）周一出现在安德鲁斯竞选团队的一段视频中。“多年来，我们俩并非在所有事情上都意见一致，”霍奇斯说。
Former South Carolina Govs. David Beasley (R) and Jim Hodges (D) appeared in a video for Andrews’s campaign on Monday.
“但我们现在同意的一件事是，这个国家分裂得太厉害了，政治言辞已经完全失控，”比斯利表示。
“Now, over the years, the two of us haven’t always agreed on everything,” Hodges said.
“这就是我们今天走到一起支持安妮·安德鲁斯的原因，”霍奇斯继续说道。
“But one thing we do agree on right now is this country is too divided, and the political rhetoric has gotten way, way out of hand,” Beasley stated.
“安妮明白，领导力不是让人们更愤怒，而是让事情变得更好，”比斯利补充道。“虽然我们来自不同政党，曾担任过你们的州长，但我们同意南卡罗来纳州值得比更多同样的政治斗争更好的东西。”值得注意的是，霍奇斯在1998年南卡罗来纳州州长选举中击败了比斯利，也是最后一位担任该州州长的民主党人。
“That is why we’re coming together today to support Annie Andrews,” Hodges continued.
比斯利一直批评共和党及其在特朗普总统领导下的转变。他上周在一篇评论文章中写道，这“不是我认识的那个党派，也不是我认为自己是其成员的党派。”安德鲁斯将与格雷厄姆对决，格雷厄姆被任命填补其已故哥哥、前参议员林赛·格雷厄姆（共和党人-南卡罗来纳州）的席位。达琳·格雷厄姆依赖特朗普的背书来争取支持，尽管总统因伊朗战争和生活成本上升而面临选民日益增长的不满。
“Annie understands that leadership isn’t about making people angrier. Well, it’s about making things better,” Beasley added. “Well, we may have served as your governor from different political parties, but we agree South Carolina deserves better than more of the same political fight.”Hodges notably defeated Beasley in the 1998 South Carolina gubernatorial race and was the last Democrat to serve as the state’s governor.
在一场候选人辩论中，达琳·格雷厄姆因其与总统的关系及其最近达成的一项俄罗斯石油交易而受到追问，该交易“立即”向美国和全球市场供应30万吨柴油。
Beasley has been critical of the Republican Party and its shift under President Trump. He wrote in an op-ed last week that this was “not the party that I knew, and it is not the party that I consider myself a member of.”Andrews faces off against Graham, who was appointed to fill the seat belonging to her late brother, former Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.). Darline Graham has relied on an endorsement from Trump to garner support, though the president faces growing dissatisfaction from voters over the war in Iran and rising cost of living.
她最终将决定权推给了总统，表示：“这给了总统一些工具，如果他选择的话，可以用来通过经济制裁结束战争。所以这取决于他想不想用，或者想不用别的办法。”随后，她试图将安德鲁斯与美国民主社会主义者组织联系起来，转入进攻。
During a candidate debate, Darline Graham was pressed on her ties to the president and his recent Russian oil deal, which supplies the U.S. and the global marketplace with 300,000 tons of diesel “immediately.”
“我的对手今晚将站在这里称我为社会主义者，因为这是她的剧本要求，”安德鲁斯说，“也是因为她不想跟你们谈论你们面临的高油价、高食品杂货价格，或你们当地的乡村医院关闭。”
She ultimately deferred to the president on the decision, saying, “It gives the president tools that he can use if he so chooses to end the war through economic sanctions. So that’s up to him as to whether or not he wants to use it or whether he wants to use something else.”She then went on the offensive by attempting to tie Andrews to the Democratic Socialists of America.
选举分析机构《库克政治报告》上周调整了该选区的评级，不再倾向共和党，理由是新一轮资金注入提升了安德鲁斯的胜选几率。《国会山报》的合作伙伴Decision Desk HQ预测该选情倾向格雷厄姆，给她67%的获胜几率，而安德鲁斯为33%。
“My opponent is going to stand up here tonight and call me a socialist because that’s what her script says,” Andrews said, “and also because she doesn’t want to talk to you about your high gas prices, grocery prices or your closing rural hospital.”Cook Political Report, an election handicapper, shifted the race away from the GOP’s favor last week, citing a new wave of funding boosting Andrews’s chances in the election. Decision Desk HQ, The Hill’s partner, forecasted the race leaning in Graham’s favor, giving her a 67 percent chance of winning, while Andrews has a 33 percent chance.
