AGP Executive Report

Last update: 3 hours ago

Election Watch: Nearly 900,000 South Carolinians had voted early by Friday, already surpassing the state’s entire 2022 midterm total. The surge comes as voters prepare to choose a U.S. senator and governor on Tuesday. Senate Race: Republican Darline Graham and Democrat Annie Andrews are locked in a tightening contest. President Donald Trump rallied for Graham in Rock Hill, while the NRA endorsed her; Andrews has criticized Graham over campaign finances and data-center policy. Energy and Jobs: Santee Cooper approved a rate increase that includes early costs for a proposed gas plant. Meanwhile, SteelFab plans a $30 million Richland County facility expected to create 100 jobs, and Nash Technologies is adding 30 jobs in Charleston County. Lowcountry Growth: South Carolina approved millions for a planned I-95 interchange at Exit 3, a project intended to open access to development land near Hardeeville.
