The state lawmaker surprised the political world when she upset the incumbent in a GOP primary just a week and a half ago. Now, Arrington is in the hospital after a fatal collision Friday night.
Just about 10 days ago, Katie Arrington was celebrating a hard-fought electoral win. The conservative South Carolina state lawmaker had dealt longtime incumbent Rep. Mark Sanford a surprising defeat in the state's congressional GOP primary.
Now Arrington, 47, is in the hospital facing quite another kind of fight.
A friend had been driving the U.S. House hopeful Friday night when their car was struck by a vehicle driving the wrong direction on the highway, according to her spokesperson.
Capt. Roger Antonio of the Charleston County Sheriff's Office tells NPR the driver of the other vehicle died at the scene in Adams Run, S.C. Arrington's friend, 59-year-old Jacqueline Goff, has been hospitalized with serious injuries.

Seems suspect to me, that is how the CIA works, they use cars to crash into you to make it look like an accident... They tried to do it to Putin and Trump and there is video of that...
It will be interesting to see if they state what the circumstances were. Likely be one of those unresolved investigations.
If she had defeated a friend of the Clintons she would have "accidentally" shot herself in the head 10 times
I've been praying for her since I heard the accident occured.
The above commenter says it sounds suspect? The other driver died, why would he want to kill himself?
3:31....you are waaaaay too naive.
