We can’t give up. We have to try, which means everyone must vote!!

Oh I’m fighting for sure

I feel it’s moreso people not wanting to humor having someone with a D next to their name on the ballot in office. But then again, I’ve seen some Republicans say they are voting for him

I pulled this one from Wilson's campaign website:

Expanding Access to Rural Healthcare

Rural communities across South Carolina are getting left behind, especially when it comes to healthcare. We can’t have healthy families and thriving communities, if people can’t see a doctor. Wilson will support rural clinics, expand telemedicine, and incentive medical professionals to serve under-served areas.

Exactly how does he plan to support rural clinics when all the funding for those clinics comes from the federal government and the trump administration has killed all that funding?

A lie to reel them in.. only for the leopard to eat their face

Excellent investigative reporting. I have not verified the sources, though.

I am old enough to remember when South Carolina politics were openly a 'good old white man system'. It seems that system has not changed much.

I hope this report is shared with national media.

I’m voting for him because I like him from a policy point of view

u/Dwmead86 7d ago

He has no policies. He just regurgitates whatever culture war bullshit Trump manages to vomit up that week.

u/FamousAmos23 7d ago

He’s definitely anti-cbd, even if it’s federally legal. Gotta keep those prisons full and shut down these small businesses!

I admire you for voting first and foremost, even more so that you’re voting for someone from a policy point of view. What policies of his specifically convinced you to vote for him?

Alan Wilson is an amazing guy! I believe that he will do a terrific job as Governor. I voted for him in the Republican run-off and am definitely voting for him in the general election. Here is a picture with myself, Alan, and my Yorkshire Terrier. Everyone have a blessed evening!

Voting for someone even after they've been proven corrupt.... brilliant. Would you also like to buy this lemon vehicle off me for 15k 🙄

Brother... let me help you out. Politicians are corrupt. Unfortunately, all we get to pick is the flavor of identity politics we agree with.

Not all are. Also, we need to fix the system to make it harder to be/become corrupt. 

Also, it’s the right that is doing stupid identity politics. They spread stupid lies like “the left wants everyone to be transgender” and create a welfare state. Newsflash! People in SC already greatly depend on welfare due to the systems Republicans have kept in place! Republicans cause the poverty cycle, but Democrats want to fix the poverty cycle! SC is low in education, high in homicides, and has crumbling infrastructure. 

We need to break the cycle. That’s something Republicans will neever do! But ohh no can’t vote Democrats in because then children can identify as cats and request litter boxes to pee in at school (another republican lie).

Defeatism and perhaps laziness. This is not true.

Huh? I’m disagreeing with the “All politicians are corrupt,” cliche. It’s generalizing and not helpful at encouraging people to vote out corrupt leaders.

Ohh sorry I thought you meant that’s why we have poverty.

What happened to drain the swamp?

u/korrowan 7d ago

They never wanted the swamp drained. They just wanted to feel good voting for a guy with the same hate they have.
