The DC Medical Examiner’s Office has released its preliminary findings: Senator Lindsey Graham died from aortic dissection caused by arteriosclerotic cardiovascular disease. In plain terms — a catastrophic tear in his aorta, caused by the hardening and narrowing of arteries that had been silently building for years. The full death certificate remains pending toxicology and microscopic testing, but the cause is no longer in question.
