    This is the second of two episodes where we let you listen in on the Attorney General's race debate from the Robert Reed Recreation Center in Myrtle Beach. This debate had some fireworks and it was also very informative. I think all three candidates did an impressive job. Enjoy!

    Here is Senator Stephen Goldfinch from the South end of Horry County, so this was a hometown crowd.

    David Pascoe, the Solicitor on Lexington County

    David Stumbo the Solicitor from Greenwood S.C.

    GRAND STRAND POLITICS SPECIAL EVENT

    Lindsey Graham Swing Through Myrtle Beach (Part 2)
    The Campaign Event — Live from the Veteran’s Cafe in Myrtle Beach

    In Part 2 of our special coverage of Senator Lindsey Graham’s swing through Myrtle Beach, we take you live to the Veteran’s Cafe for a full campaign-style event featuring remarks from the senator and an extended question-and-answer session with constituents.

    Speaking before a local crowd in Myrtle Beach, Graham addressed a wide range of issues facing South Carolina and the nation — including national security, immigration, the economy, foreign policy, and the upcoming 2026 election cycle.

    Following his remarks, the senator spent nearly half an hour taking questions directly from attendees, offering listeners an unfiltered look at how he engages with voters on both national and local concerns.

    This episode captures the event in full, giving listeners the atmosphere of the room and the substance of the discussion as it happened live.

    Topics discussed include:

    • The political landscape heading into 2026
    • Questions from constituents on current national issues
    • Graham’s perspective on foreign policy and defense
    • South Carolina politics and the Republican Party
    • The role of public events and direct voter engagement in modern campaigns

    Whether you agree with him or not, this episode provides a firsthand look at one of South Carolina’s most prominent political figures interacting directly with the public during a key moment in the political season.

    A live event.
    Real questions.
    And a window into retail politics on the Grand Strand.
