Summary
Friday’s rally at Myrtle Beach Convention Center will put Trump beside interim Sen. Darline Graham as she tries to hold her late brother Lindsey Graham’s seat in the Aug. 25 GOP runoff.
3 p.m. door openings and a 7 p.m. start are triggering one of Myrtle Beach’s biggest security operations, with late-day road closures near the venue and delays expected on Highway 17, Robert Grissom Parkway, 21st Street and Oak Street.
FAA restrictions add to the disruption: a temporary flight restriction runs from 5:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. with 12- and 32-nautical-mile rings, while most drones are barred within 2 nautical miles from 4 p.m. to 10:30 p.m.
The runoff pits Darline Graham against Rep. Ralph Norman after Lindsey Graham died July 11; the winner advances to face Democrat Annie Andrews in November.
