NEWS AND EVENTS
Help Us Get Ready for 2022
We are building our infrastructure and outreach so we are prepared for the upcoming 2022 Elections. In South Carolina, all state elective offices are up for election (Governor, etc.) as well as challenges to Sen. Tim Scott's seat and reclaiming our Congressional seat. But, most importantly we are planning data-driven expansive campaigns for our local candidates to increase the number of Democrats in the State House and the County Council.
We have seen the consequences of the 2020 elections with Republicans gaining a supermajority in the State Senate on our state's policies. in a span of a few short months, the Republicans have passed bills to ban abortion, relax gun laws, discriminate against members of the LGBT community, and consider dangerous anti-environmental legislation.
It is time to fight back by mounting competitive political challenges to all of the incumbent Republicans. Please help us in our efforts by contributing to the BCDP today

Democratic Candidates Announce for 2022 Election
Start Planning For 2022
It is not too soon to start thinking about the 2022 mid-term elections. How would like to participate - as a candidate, as a precinct leader, as a volunteer? Whatever role you play - it will be critical to continuing making Democratic inroads in Beaufort County.
The BCDP has convened a Candidate Recruitment Committee with representatives from every region from the County to identify candidates who want to run for office in 2022. In addition, the BCDP Training Committee is holding 90-minute sessions on What You Need to Know About Running for Office in Beaufort County.
There are many elected positions open in 2022. We encourage everyone to consider whether this is a path they would like to pursue. Link here for a list of elected positions that currently have Republican incumbents that will be up for election in November 2022.
