[Asia Economy New York=Correspondent Baek Jong-min] Bloomberg News reported on the 3rd (local time) that Lindsey Graham, a close aide to President Donald Trump whose survival was uncertain, won the election.


The news agency reported that the Associated Press predicted that Senator Graham would win despite a tough challenge from Democratic candidate Jaime Harrison in the Senate election held that day.



Graham, chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, played a leading role in the confirmation of Amy Coney Barrett as a federal Supreme Court justice. As a result, he faced strong opposition from Democratic supporters. Subsequently, a large amount of donations was raised for Harrison, raising the possibility of Graham's defeat, but he ultimately secured victory.
