From Our Chairman


Drew McKissick



Hello Fellow Republican! Welcome to the South Carolina Republican Party!

Our Party has grown tremendously in recent years and that growth has translated into greater success at the ballot box. In 2020 we celebrated the greatest number of wins for South Carolina Republicans in over 140 years - and we followed it up with more record wins in 2022!

But while we have enjoyed tremendous victories, we can't allow ourselves to get complacent. The key to our future success is continuing to identify more people who share our conservative values and training more activists in how to be effective in the political arena.

Every day we continue to remain focused on our mission of promoting our platform and electing candidates who will support it. But in order to do that, we must focus on the political fundamentals: 1) raise money 2) communicate our conservative message and 3) identify, train, organize and elect Republicans.

We hope you’ll join us as we look ahead and continue to elect more Republicans and defend our conservative values.

Thanks so much for all that you do for our Party!
