from Frogmore Stew · host The Alliance Coalition

Not everyone who wants change is meant to run for office and that does not mean they are powerless. State Senator Ed Sutton explains how everyday South Carolinians can serve on local boards, influence key decisions, and shape public policy without campaigns, party labels, or partisan fights. From transportation and aviation to foster care and judicial appointments, this conversation breaks down where real civic power lives at the local level. It is a practical guide to public service that shows how government actually functions beyond elections. 00:00 Why Local Boards Matter 03:52 Roads and Transportation Power 08:50 What County Delegations Do 15:01 Home Rule and County Power 17:45 Magistrate Judges Explained 20:05 Airport Board’s Role 22:52 Serving on Local Boards 28:33 How Appointments Get Approved 32:39 2026 Session and Elections
