Hutto filed to run for Senator Lindsey Graham's seat in the United States Senate in 2014. He announced his candidacy on March 28, 2014, saying that a "bruising primary" shaping up between Graham and Republican challengers "would give me an opening" in the race despite South Carolina's strong conservative lean.[1] Hutto also criticized Graham for his frequent television appearances and said he would campaign to represent South Carolina's rural interests and communities.[2]
On May 28, 2014, the South Carolina Democratic Party's executive committee voted unanimously to endorse Hutto in the primary election over candidate Jay Stamper.[3]
