Ride the Blue Wave

In 2026, Charleston voters helped elect a U.S. senator, two members of Congress, and Democrats up and down the ballot. Charleston Democrats are growing and thriving!

Charleston made history on November 3.
Charleston County voters helped elect Dr. Annie Andrews, the first woman ever elected to the U.S. Senate from South Carolina, and flip SC-01 for Nancy Lacore. Across the state, Democrats broke the Republican supermajority in the State House.
It built on 2024, when Charleston went blue in a state that hasn't voted Democratic for president since 1976. That didn't happen by accident. It happened because of neighbors knocking on doors, showing up to meetings, volunteering their weekends, and believing that their vote matters.
