Send us Fan MailRussell Fry South Carolina Gubernatorial Candidates Forum — Part 2Featuring Congresswoman Nancy Mace, Lieutenant Governor Pamela Evette, and Congressman Ralph NormanIn this special rebroadcast edition, we continue our coverage of the South Carolina Gubernatorial Candidates Forum hosted by Russell Fry — an event that brought together leading Republican candidates for an extended, issue-focused discussion about the future of South Carolina.At a time when political discourse is often compressed into brief exchanges and headlines, Congressman Fry created a forum that emphasized substance, allowing voters to hear directly from the candidates in a longer and more thoughtful format. His hosting of the event provided an important opportunity for South Carolinians to evaluate the experience, priorities, and leadership styles of those seeking the governor’s office.Part 2 features three prominent figures in South Carolina and national politics:First is Nancy Mace, the congresswoman representing South Carolina’s First Congressional District. Mace first gained national attention as the first woman to graduate from The Citadel’s Corps of Cadets and later built a political career emphasizing fiscal conservatism, government accountability, and a willingness to challenge both parties when she believes necessary. Her congressional career has made her one of the most visible political figures in the state.Also featured is Pamela Evette, the current Lieutenant Governor of South Carolina and a successful businesswoman before entering public office. Serving alongside Governor Henry McMaster, Evette has focused on workforce development, economic growth, small business issues, and expanding opportunities throughout the state. She became the first female Republican lieutenant governor in South Carolina history.Finally, we hear from Ralph Norman, the longtime congressman representing South Carolina’s Fifth Congressional District. A businessman and former member of the South Carolina House of Representatives, Norman has built a reputation as a strong fiscal conservative and outspoken advocate for limited government, economic development, and conservative grassroots principles.In these long-form discussions, the candidates address:• Their vision for the future of South Carolina • Economic growth and business development • Public safety and immigration • Education and infrastructure • State leadership and conservative governance • The direction of the Republican PartyThis episode gives listeners the opportunity to hear the candidates beyond campaign slogans — in their own words and at length.Three candidates. Three different leadership styles. One race that will help define South Carolina’s next chapter.
