AGP Executive Report

Last update: 4 hours ago

Democratic Primary Shake-Up: The DNC is set to keep South Carolina first in the 2028 presidential nominating calendar, a move that’s already sparked debate over whether Iowa should still lead and whether the party’s early-state strategy will favor moderates or progressives. Measles Alert: New CDC data shows U.S. measles cases hit a 35-year high in 2026, with South Carolina tied to a major outbreak last fall and vaccination rates continuing to slip. GOP Senate Race Fallout: Rep. Nancy Mace is publicly questioning whether Sen. Darline Graham is qualified to appear on South Carolina’s Republican ballot, breaking from President Trump’s preferred pick. Local Governance & Data Centers: Orangeburg County voted to consider a moratorium on new data center construction, while other Midlands-area leaders are also pushing back on major development plans. Housing Pressure: Foreclosure filings are rising nationwide, with South Carolina among states seeing higher rates as home prices stay elevated. Community & Public Safety: North Charleston officials report federal charges tied to a July 4 block party melee involving stolen police equipment and ammunition.
