Freedom Caucus Rally - There is a FREEDOM CAUCUS RALLY Oct 16, 6:30 pm, 125 Main Street, Chester, SC. Come learn why SC is one of the bluest red states in the nation. The four
Freedom Caucus Members who will be there are: Josiah Magnuson, Jay Kilmartin, Rob Harris, Thomas Beach.
Freedom Caucus being smeared - If you are doing the right thing in politics, you can count on being attacked by dark money. Members of the SC Freedom Caucus are the targets of recent smears from the so-called Palmetto Truth Project, a Columbia, S.C.-based pro-establishment, dark money outfit. It is important that we support true conservatives like the Freedom Caucus. https://www.fitsnews.com/2023/04/12/south-carolina-freedom-caucus-drama-who-is-targeting-conservative-lawmakers/.
Questionable activity by displaced splinter group in Lexington GOP - https://www.myscgop.news/2023/10/02/lexington-gop-update-state-ec-meeting/ Those
who were voted out in Lexington have formed a splinter group and absconded with the LCRP Facebook page, set up a new website, solicited funds from unknowing individuals and then scheduled a new election. GOP elections are governed by Election law.
NOTES
Strong election Integrity bills we are supporting:
H 4259 HAND COUNT AUDIT ACT
H 4260 VOTER ACCESS AND TRANSPARENCY ACT
H 4261 CLEAN VOTER ROLL ACT
Some leadership changes:
a. Diana Jackson will be helping Brad Smith with organization of Cluster 7. Christine Lekich will take over leadership of the Orientation/Training Committee.
b. Ellen Brandt will be taking over Cluster 5 as Dave Wilburn can no longer fill this role due to work commitments.
We are encouraging all Cluster and Precinct leaders to work hard on finding candidates to run for office and to recruit new members into the YGCOP.
A new logo has been developed and approved that includes American First. A popup tent has been purchased (with approval of the Executive Committee). The tent has YCGOP logo and can be used at rallies, festivals and other events where we can set up a table and recruit members and convey our message.
A decision has been made to focus on educating YCGOP members on the contents of the South Carolina Republican Platform. The platform covers almost all the most important issue that we expose, and our elected representatives need to be held accountable if they do not support the platform.
The first shipment of our shirts and hats with the YCGOP logo have been received!
*********************************
WHO WE ARE – YCGOP is a group of ‘AMERICA FIRST’ (AF) patriots that believe in strength in our national policies – strong economy, strong military, strong borders, and strong foreign policy. YCGOP believes that the GOP in SC should be enacting the GOP platform (see here – the platform is excellent but ‘special interests,’ aka The Swamp in Columbia, keep much of it from being enacted).
OUR MISSION – To promote the Republican Party platform and elect candidates who will support it. We intend to increase our membership and, therefore, our influence with our elected officials at the city, county, and state level.
HOW YOU CAN HELP – It is understood that we all have busy lives. Some folks can do more than others. However, nearly everyone can take a moment and think of a few people YOU know who are also AF patriots that live in York County and forward this email to them so they, too, can know what’s going on in our county and state. There are a LOT of AF patriots out there who are sick and tired of the establishment GOP way of selling out to special interests. We want to put an end to that in SC and need all the help we can get!
