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. Since the election of President Trump, our Party has seen more donors and activists recruited in unbelievable and unexpected numbers - and we have made tremendous inroads in areas where we previously had little support. Your commitment will make the continued growth and expansion of our Party a reality! Let me offer a personal “thank you” to all of our county party officers, volunteers and activists, elected officials, state REMEMBERING SEPTEMBER 11, 2001 party staff and the donors who help finance our efforts. Thank you for the generous donations of your time and your treasure to our cause. You make our success possible and this evening is dedicated to you! “I want you all to know that America today, America today is on bended knee, in Thank you for the incredible opportunity of serving as your State Chairman. prayer for the people whose lives were lost here, for the workers who work here, God Bless! for the families who mourn.

We take our primaries very seriously—We Pick Presidents! Their work gave South Carolinians a front row seat to American history. Following relatively tame primaries in 1988, 1992, and 1996, the Palmetto State’s 2000 primary was one for the ages. Texas Governor George W. Bush lost in New Hampshire to Senator John McCain, setting up a bruising few weeks with non-stop, 24 hour media attention on the Palmetto State. A whopping 573,101 South Carolina Republicans voted in our presidential primary. Governor Bush won 53% of the vote and cemented his claim on the GOP nomination. Headed into 2008, Senator McCain again appeared the underdog in South Carolina. But his campaign kicked into gear prior to the Palmetto State primary and his comeback win provided a shot of momentum in the Florida primary. In 2012, a new record of 603,770 voters turned out in horrible weather to deliver victory to former Speaker Newt Gingrich, breaking South Carolina’s “nominee streak.” Speaker Gingrich’s surprising victory was sparked by two dramatic South Carolina presidential debates in the week before the primary. In 2016, New York real estate mogul Donald Trump crushed the largest field in South Carolina presidential primary history, winning all but two counties and validating his campaign for president in the eyes of political watchers. The 2016 primary set another new record for presidential primary turnout - 740,881. Thanks to the leadership of our Republican National Committee members, South Carolina’s “First in the South” Republican primary is secure for years to come!

The daughter of former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee, Sanders has worked in leadership roles for U.S senators, governors, and presidential campaigns. Sarah has been recognized in TIME Magazine’s “40 under 40” as one of the best political operatives of her generation. She is a Fox News contributor, advises major companies, and serves on the Fulbright board as an appointee of President Donald J. Trump. Sarah lives in Little Rock, Arkansas with her husband Bryan, their children Scarlett, Huck, and George, and their golden retriever Traveler. A trusted confidante of President Trump, Sanders advised him on everything from press and communications strategy to personnel and policy. She was at the President’s side for two and a half years, battling with the media, working with lawmakers and CEOs, and accompanying the President on every international trip, including dozens of meetings with foreign leaders—all while unfailingly exhibiting grace under pressure.

  • Advocacy 101
    ADVOCACY 101 Best Practices Toolkit Updated January 2017 Best Practices for Calling Your Legislator A few calls into an office over a short period of time can bring an issue to the attention of your legislator in a big way! When making a call remember the following tips: When connecting to a legislator’s office, let the staffer know that you are a constituent or community member and what issue or bill you are calling about. More than likely you’ll speak only with the staffer who will relay the message to your elected official. Keep it simple and brief. Staff receive a high volume of phone calls every day, so state your name, how you want your lawmaker to vote and why, and thank staffers for their time. Know your facts. Have the basic information about the bill in front of you when you call and be able to specifically name and describe the bill and your opinion on what your legislator should do. Don’t sweat the hypothetical unanswerable question. Some advocates worry that they will be asked a question they don’t know how to answer. Staffers typically focus on recording the message rather than asking for intricate details; however, if they do ask a question that you don’t know the answer to, tell them you’ll find out and call back. Just remember to follow up with the information! Be courteous and respectful – like your mama taught you. Best Practices for Writing Your Legislator Concise, well thought-out personal letters are one of the most effective and time-honored traditions of influencing South Carolina lawmakers.

  • 2010 Arts Advocacy Handbook
    2010 ARTS ADVOCACY HANDBOOK Celebrating 30 Years of Service to the Arts January 2010 Dear Arts Leader: As we celebrate our 30th year of service to the arts, we know that “Art Works in South Carolina” – in our classrooms and in our communities. We also know that effective advocacy must take place every day! And there has never been a more important time to advocate for the arts than NOW. With drastic funding reductions to the South Carolina Arts Commission and arts education programs within the S. C. Department of Education, state arts funding has never been more in jeopardy. On February 2nd, the South Carolina Arts Alliance will host Arts Advocacy Day – a special opportunity to celebrate the arts – to gather with colleagues and legislators – and to express support for state funding of the arts and arts education! Meet us at the Statehouse, 1st floor lobby (enter at the Sumter Street side) by 11:30 AM, to pick up one of our ART WORKS IN SOUTH CAROLINA “hard-hats” and advocacy buttons to wear. If you already have a hat or button, please bring them! We’ll greet Legislators as they arrive on the 1st floor and 2nd floors. From the chamber galleries, you can view the arts being recognized on the House and Senate floors. You may want to “call out” your legislator to let him or her know you are at the Statehouse and plan to attend the Legislative Appreciation Luncheon. Then join arts leaders and legislators at the Legislative Appreciation Luncheon honoring the Legislative Arts Caucus.
