Sen. Lindsey Graham wants federal aid for South Carolina floods — but doesn’t remember voting against Sandy relief for New Jersey Dylan Stableford Senior editor Octoberý ý6ý, ý2015 South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham is seeking federal aid after his home state was ravaged by deadly floods amid historic rainfall triggered by Hurricane Joaquin. “Let’s just get through this thing,” Graham said in an interview with CNN’s Wolf Blitzer on “The Situation Room” Monday. “And whatever it costs, it costs.” But in 2013, Graham was among 36 Senate Republicans who voted against giving similar aid to New Jersey in the wake of Hurricane Sandy. (The bill passed in a 62 to 36 vote.) Graham told Blitzer he didn’t remember opposing the $50.5 billion Sandy relief bill.
