SC-GOV: Ralph Norman (R) set to join South Carolina governor's race

South Carolina Rep. Ralph Norman (R) is expected to file is candidacy Friday to become his state’s next governor.

“America has a businessman in the White House, and I believe we need a businessman as Governor of South Carolina,” a statement on Norman’s campaign website reads.

“I have a vision for South Carolina – one where we fix our roads, improve our schools, and get South Carolina prepared for a tremendous opportunity. But that won’t happen if we don’t fix a system that is rotten to its core. I am running for Governor to shake things up, clean up Columbia, and knock down the corrupt political establishment once and for all,” he added.

While in Congress, Norman, a member of the conservative House Freedom Caucus, has supported President Trump’s push to remove diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) efforts from higher education and the government, decrease federal spending and impose tougher policies on immigration.
