For 53 years, South Carolina Republicans have gathered together each year to forget... celebrate our party’s conservative principles, as well as the donors and activists who help promote those principles in our government. While our Party has enjoyed increasing success in the years since our Elephant Club was formed, we always have to remember that no victories are ever perma- nent. They are dependent on our continuing to be faithful to do the fundamen- tals: communicating a clear conservative message that is relevant to voters, identifying and organizing fellow Republicans, and raising the money to make it all possible. As we gather this evening on the anniversary of the tragic terrorists attacks on our homeland in 2001, we’re reminded about what’s at stake in our elections this year - the protection of our families, our homes, our property, our borders and our fundamental values. This year’s election offers us an incredible opportunity to continue to expand our Party.

  • As Trump Restarts Rallies, GOP Strategists Hope Against All Odds That He Won't Rehash 2020 Election
    As Trump restarts rallies, GOP strategists hope against all odds that he won't rehash 2020 election The Republican Party finds itself in befuddling circumstances as former President Donald Trump prepares to hold political rallies again, beginning this weekend with an appearance in North Carolina. Trump was one of the only Republican candidates to lose a high-profile competitive race in 2020. GOP candidates won the majority of close races across the country, in the U.S. Senate, in the U.S. House and in state legislatures and gubernatorial races. Yet the party remains stuck with Trump as its standard bearer for the foreseeable future, due to his intense popularity with a vocal portion of the party. A substantial majority of Republicans also say they believe his claims that the election was stolen from him, according to a recent Yahoo News/YouGov survey, and he leads the rest of the hypothetical GOP field in some early polls for the party‟s nomination in 2024. But none of that means he is the GOP‟s best representative against a Democrat. The 2020 election would suggest the opposite. Supporters of former President Donald Trump outside Trump Tower during a rare visit he made to his New York City offices on March 8. (Andrew Lichtenstein/Corbis via Getty Images) It‟s true that Trump won just over 74 million votes last fall, but there were millions of American voters who vote Republican but who found him so odious that they voted for Joe Biden or didn‟t vote for president at all. Those votes were a big reason why Biden got 82 million votes.

  • Jim Demint Lindsey Graham
    U.S. Senator U.S. Senator Jim DeMint Lindsey Graham Dear Friends, The 2010 elections are our first step in rebuilding our Party, and South Carolina must continue to lead the way for the rest of the country. We have both been privileged to work with our Chairman, Katon Dawson, to grow the South Carolina Republican Party. The Chairman’s job is a daunting one and requires tremendous dedication and sacrifice. South Carolina Republicans owe Katon and Candy Dawson a huge debt of gratitude for their dedication and service. The best way to thank them is to continue to build upon the foundation Katon has laid. And that is why we are writing you today. We have identified a leader who is uniquely qualified to help lead our South Carolina Republican Party. He was tested in the toughest battles and has played a key role in nearly every top-of-the-ticket campaign in South Carolina over the last decade. This leader is Kevin Hall. From coordinating phone banks to assisting in campaign strategy, he has served in just about every volunteer role possible. Throughout all of his service, he never made a dime from the campaigns he’s helped. He does it because he is a true believer in our party and in the conservative cause. He does it because he understands that if we’re going to reclaim our credibility as Republicans, we must recruit and support candidates who will be true to our ideals and principles. And today we are asking you to join us in supporting Kevin to become the next Chairman of the South Carolina Republican Party.
