Chip in today to elect Dem govs >>
Democratic governors are leading in the fight against Donald Trump. With our two historic victories in Virginia and New Jersey, grassroots momentum is on our side! But this year, nearly 80% of the country is voting for a governor – and with Republicans already investing to beat Dem govs, early support has never been so critical. Will you donate to elect more Democratic governors who will defend our rights and freedoms and stand up to Trump?
DGA Statement on Republican Primary in South Carolina
Today, Democratic Governors Association Executive Director Elisabeth Pearson released the following statement regarding South Carolina GOP primary election results:
“Tonight Donald Trump’s handpicked candidate in South Carolina failed to secure the GOP nomination, and that means Republicans are in for two more weeks of this never-ending nasty primary,” said Pearson. “This is a major embarrassment for President Trump. And it’s a historic failure by Governor Henry McMaster, who became the first GOP governor in South Carolina history to be forced into a primary runoff.
“If you thought the last year was nasty, get ready for Henry McMaster and John Warren to launch an all-out personal assault on each other. While the fractured Republican Party fights amongst itself, Democrats are united behind James Smith and ready to win in November.”
