Republicans in South Carolina are trying to redraw congressional maps in the middle of an election year, after ballots have already been sent out. We are going to fight back. And we are going to make them answer to the voters. Help us flip SC-01.

The Lowcountry shaped me, from the Coast Guard, to the Citadel, and in local govt. I'd be honored to earn your vote on June 9

With your support we made the runoff, giving us our best chance in years to flip SC-1. But out-of-state data center billionaires are flooding the race with money to stop us. Will you chip in before June 23rd to give us the resources we need to replace Nancy Mace?

I’ll always show up for the people of the Lowcountry, whether it’s easy or not. That’s what respect looks like. I accepted these debates. My opponent declined. You deserve a candidate who isn’t afraid to face you.

Figures cover domestic political ads paid in dollars, from 4 May 2026. Spend is the sum of Meta’s range midpoints; impressions above one million are reported as “1M+”, so impression figures are floors. Each ad counts in the week its delivery started, with its lifetime spend at our last pull; ads still running before the vote are counted as of 31 October 2026.
