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.

  • THURSDAY MARCH 5, 2020 7:00 PM Founder’S Memorial Amphitorium 1700 Wade Hampton Blvd
    2020 THURSDAY MARCH 5, 2020 7:00 PM Founder’s Memorial Amphitorium 1700 Wade Hampton Blvd. | Greenville, SC ABBY JOHNSON abbyjohnson.org Abby has always been fiercely determined to help women in need. This desire is what led her to a career with Planned Parenthood, our nation’s largest abortion provider, and caused her to flee the organization, becoming an outspoken advocate for the pro-life movement. Her memoir, Unplanned, was made into the 2019 movie of the same name. Abby travels across the globe sharing her story, educating the public on pro-life issues, advocating for the unborn, and reaching out to abortion clinic staff who still work in the industry. She is the founder of And Then There Were None, a ministry designed to assist abortion clinic workers in transitioning out of the industry. To date, this ministry has helped over 430 workers leave the abortion industry. PiedmontWomensCenter.org/DONATE Program WELCOME AND OPENING PRAYER A LOOK INSIDE PIEDMONT WOMEN’S CENTER KEYNOTE SPEAKER - ABBY JOHNSON CLOSING REMARKS - KELLY ROSS CLOSING PRAYER After the event, join us for cookies and fellowship outside PiedmontW Letter From Kelly It’s only unthinkable… “It’s only unthinkable if you don’t think it.” DABO SWINNEY When I first heard that statement, I chuckled about the funny way that sounded. As with many things Coach Swinney says, they strike me as funny until I take a moment to reflect on them. This simple statement after a hard-fought victory points to the creative and intellectual ability God has shared with all creation (especially those who call Him Father and trust in Him for Salvation).

  • 2020 General Election Recap
    2020 General Election Recap Federal and State Elections Compiled by: This document serves to educate and give individuals & organizations an opportunity to learn about election results throughout South Carolina. All results reflected in this document are South Carolina specific. Federal Election Results The final day of a historic election with record turnout took place on November 3, 2020. While votes are still being counted in the election for US President, South Carolina’s outlook began taking shape shortly after the polls closed. There were significant increases in early voting as compared to 2016, with both Republicans and Democrats showing up early and pushing South Carolina’s voter turnout to 72.10%. Federal Election Results President & Vice President Donald J Trump Joseph R Biden Mike Pence Kamala Harris South Carolina Results While President Trump won the 9 electoral votes from the State of South Carolina, President-elect Joe Biden won the national election. November 3, 2020: Election day & States appointed their electors States must appoint their electors to the electoral college on the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November under a federal law passed by Congress in 1845. December 8, 2020: The safe harbor deadline in the electoral college Six days before the electoral colleges convene to vote is the "safe harbor" deadline. While states aren't legally required to certify their results by this date, if they do so, they can avoid Congress getting involved and resolving a potential dispute over which candidate won a particular state's electoral college votes. December 14, 2020: Electors vote On the second Monday after the second Wednesday in December, slates of electors selected by voters convene in all 50 states and the District of Columbia to formally cast their votes for president and vice president.
