A 24-year-old Democrat won a landslide victory in Senator Lindsey Graham's home turf, winning a seat in the South Carolina House of Representatives.

Keishan Scott claimed the seat for the rural 50th District with a commanding lead of nearly 41 points over his Republican challenger, William Oden, according to unofficial results released Tuesday night by the South Carolina Elections Commission.

This is a district that then-Vice President Kamala Harris won in the 2024 presidential election, The Daily Beast reported.

"This victory is definitely not just mine," Scott declared in a victory speech posted on his Facebook page. "It belongs to all the residents of District 50... I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for your trust."
