Congressman Ralph Norman, who told the Senate to hold a talking filibuster on the SAVE America Act, the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act, and keep the floor open all night until it took the bill up, faces Senator Darline Graham Nordone, appointed six weeks ago to the seat her late brother Lindsey Graham held. She is endorsed by President Trump, Governor Henry McMaster and Majority Leader John Thune. Norman is endorsed by Senator Mike Lee, who wrote the narrower version of the bill, and Senator Rick Scott. Jenny Beth Martin and her panel work through what an August runoff nobody is watching actually decides, then turn to the twenty-one-year-old who invented a polling company using artificial intelligence and got the political press to print his numbers.
Guests: Jim Pfaff, president of The Conservative Caucus, and Chad Connelly, founder of Faith Wins and former chairman of the South Carolina Republican Party.
