COLUMBIA, S.C. – Three Black female veterans of Democratic Party politics are ripping a page out of Georgia’s successful playbook by launching a new South Carolina-focused political action committee with the goal of reengaging and registering more voters ahead of 2022.
Despite massive fundraising success in 2020, South Carolina Democrats fell short last year, losing two key federal races and a handful of State House seats that gave Republicans more power in the General Assembly. It’s why Christale Spain said forming 46 Hope Road PAC – a nod to South Carolina’s 46 counties and the state’s motto, “While I Breathe, I Hope” – is key to ensuring Democrats’ success.
