Meet the Primary Candidates: Governor

South Carolina’s next governor could shape everything from healthcare and education to voting rights, infrastructure, and the future of the state itself. We have candid conversations with gubernatorial candidates on the issues driving the 2026 race, including Medicaid expansion, gerrymandering, abortion laws, government spending, roads, schools, and the growing divide between power and everyday people. From calls for political reform to competing visions for South Carolina’s future, the candidates make their case for why they should lead and what they believe needs to change before voters head to the primary. If you are still figuring out who deserves your vote, this is a good place to start. 00:00 Introduction 02:10 Billy Webster 16:54 Jermaine Johnson 36:00 Rom Reddy Billy Webster https://websterforsc.com/ Jermaine Johnson https://johnsonforsc.com/ Rom Reddy https://www.reddyforgovernor.com/ Also available wherever you get your podcasts: Apple Podcasts https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/frogmore-stew/id1714820542 Spotify https://open.spotify.com/show/6pxy2KuAmOfHCOU7xFQHUj There's more stew on Substack! https://frogmorestew.substack.com/ Learn more about Frogmore Stew at https://www.frogmorestewsc.com/ On Instagram https://www.instagram.com/frogmorestewsc on TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@frogmorestewsc Frogmore Stew is brought to you by The Alliance Coalition The Alliance Coalition works to redistribute power back to YOU, the voter. We do this by collecting data on belief systems, providing clear and digestible political information, history and trends, while building a community for those of us who feel politically unhoused.
