Candidates Part II – Campaign Finance Disclosures
Yesterday we talked about the (1) A Statement of Economic Interest (SEI) … and today we will introduce you to the (2) Campaign Finance Disclosures. (Initial, quarterly, pre-election & final.)
Read yesterday’s SEI “Part I” article HERE.
Both of these candidate / campaign filings must be entered online with the SC State Ethics … and although it is relatively simple … you want to do it right … so LEARN IT, enjoy and relax!!!
[NOTE – STATE & LOCAL ONLY: It may be self evident, but these SC State Ethics Commission compliance matters are only for state & local positions. For our federal officials (US House & Senate) … that is a totally different system with the Federal Election Commission (FEC). Read more HERE]
Campaign Finance Disclosures:
Like the SEI which seeks to disclose a candidate / elected officials personal “economic” or financial interest … the Campaign Finance Disclosure purpose is as simply stated, to disclose the donations and expenditures of a candidates campaign account.
These reports simply detail the donations, expenditures, any loans your campaign might receive … just the basic data. They can be a pain and the system can be a little clunky / quirky … you can assign this task out to your “Campaign Finance Committee” … but realize YOU are ultimately responsible, so make sure it is done right.
Again, don’t let these Campaign Finance Disclosures scare you off from running for office. #WeNeedYOU
[NOTE – CAMPAIGN BANK ACCOUNT: Know that if you intend to spend any money, and you should expect to spend some, you will have to open a campaign bank account … and NO, you can not used your personal checking account!!! Setting up a campaign account is a relatively simple thing to do and we will add an article about that as well … but for the time being know you will need one.]
Reporting Due Dates:
Campaign Finance Reports:
Now this is where you can find some interesting financial stuff. There is still LOTS of ways our elected officials get around reporting the MONEY … but you can find some things in these campaign finance disclosures that are of interest.
Go ahead … search online for your favorite politician’s finance reports … see who their donors are and how they spend their donations. If you find anything interesting, send it to us at team@mySCGOP.com.

Pickens – Setting the Record Straight – A VIDEO RESPONSE
Bob Fetterly – PCRP Chair 2023-2025
YouTube (HERE) or Rumble (HERE)
We all know about the Drew McKissick shenanigans at the SCGOP State Convention back on May 3rd, 2025 with the “sneak attack” on the Pickens County Republican Party (PCRP) and the ultimate failure to seat the 24 (anti-DREW) PCRP State Delegates on fabricated charges. (mySCGOP.news, May 8th, 2025 – The Latest SCGOP Fabrication – HERE)
It really is dumbfounding … but in reality just another example in a long line of examples since the MAGA America First insurgency began in ReOrg 2021 with the outright fraud in Greenville (HERE & HERE).
Well, it is ongoing with the SCGOP … as they say, the gift that keeps giving insofar as exposing the hypocrisy and outright corruption withing the SCGOP State Leadership & State Executive Committee itself.
Specifically – the SCGOP State Executive Committee voted ( 32 to 18 ) at its quarterly meeting on June 7th, 2025, that the Pickens County Republican Party would be “suspended” until the next quarterly meeting in September. The PCRP elected leadership can no longer use the PCRP name, website, email system, bank account … even with important elections coming up in November … and the PCRP can’t meet … but somehow (even though they can’t meet?) they are supposed to come up with a “plan” to present to the SCGOP State Executive Committee in September on how to fix the fabricated problem.
Basically Pickens was “unorganized” on June 7th (without notice) – even though the SCGOP State Executive Committee did not have the 75% of the votes needed to unorganize PCRP under the “new” Rule 16(b) which was ramrodded through in a special called SCGOP convention in July 30th, 2022.
The good news is the former PCRP Chair, Bob Fetterly (who did not run, nor had he planned to run, for re-election in 2025) has published a video response to the SCGOP charges that he arbitrarily capped the number of county delegates to 400 – a bizarre charge by the SCGOP. Bob did a great job laying out the details … and it now appears that “if” there were any “Rules Violations” … it was really the SCGOP itself that violated it’s own Rules.
Take a look … we think you will enjoy the video response and details:

This is obviously going to be an ongoing story … so stay tuned!!!
