Determining and reporting to you the number of delegates per precinct is a complete mess for 2025.  On December 17th, 2024, Drew McKissick presented 4 options to the SCGOP State Executive Committee.  The only problem, Rule 4(2)(6) only allows for 2 options (see below).  And to make things even worse, Drew suggested, and the “DrewBots” on the State EC agreed on, an option that does not comply with the Rules.  They voted for the June 11th, 2024 Primary option – total ballots cast – Republicans and DEMOCRATS!!!   So yes … Democrats will be helping determine the number of delegates for our 2025 SCGOP ReOrg.

Is it unclear that Drew McKissick is a “problem”?

To try and “fix” this issue and allow for MORE delegates so that we can GROW the SCGOP and your local County Republican Party … I was one of 8 State ECs to call for a Special Meeting to reconsider this error.  We wanted to use the February 24th, 2024, Presidential Preference Primary (as per the Rules) – a solution that would generally give precincts MORE delegates per precinct.

Shouldn’t we us Republican votes to determine the Republican delegates?  Isn’t more better?  Don’t we want more MAGA / America First TRUMP supporters?  Well, apparently Drew, et al. don’t.

That Special Meeting was held via ZOOM last Friday night (1/31/2025) … but as expected the “establishment” State Executive Committee voted it down.  Only 14 SCGOP State ECs voted in favor of reconsidering … the 11 America First State ECs (Greenville, Pickens, Anderson, York, Fairfield, Dorchester, Lexington, Kershaw, Lee, Barnwell & Colleton) … as well as 3 other Drew voters that switched this time, likely from pressure within their counties.  

For instruction on “how” to calculate your precinct delegates, see this mySCGOP article from March 3rd, 2023:  HERE.  

If and when we get accurate precinct delegate counts – we will post them online for all to see.  Stay tuned … 

[NOTE:  To compound the problem, the total delegates presented by Drew McKissick at the December 17th meeting … for 11 of the 46 counties … are calculated incorrectly.  No one has been able to reconcile the numbers … and there even appears to be some discrepancies with the vote counts being presented by the SC State Election Commission.  We can only assume they will fix the errors … but overall it is a big mess.]  

FEBRUARY 15TH STATE EC MEETING:  Precinct Packets will not be distributed to County Leadership until the February 15th State EC meeting in Columbia.  Expect your local county to review the packets and start distribution to Precinct Presidents after that time.

Don’t forget … RECRUIT, RECRUIT, RECRUIT!!!  With the election of President Donald J. TRUMP and especially with all the activity going on in Washington DC right now … this is the best time EVER to grow your precinct and the Republican Party.

Jeff is also “barred” from attending the SCGOP State Executive Committee Meetings (HERE). Why? Because he dared to run against Drew McKissick for SCGOP Chairman – coming in 2nd with Drew only being reelected by 1.8% (HERE & HERE) – and in September 2021 he told the State Executive Committee that Chad Connelly had been under SLED investigation for a year and a half … and it was true (HERE & HERE).
