Dr. Sonja Ogletree Satani has officially filed to run for South Carolina House District 98. She is a wife and mother of three, Air Force veteran, professor, and small business owner. Her diverse background includes roles in international public relations, community organizing, military and government contracting, and education.
“I’m running because our interests aren’t being represented in the State House,” Dr. Ogletree Satani said. “I’m focused on economic growth, support for public education, and more funding for infrastructure projects in our community.”
In a press release announcing her candidacy, Dr. Ogletree Satani criticized her opponent, incumbent Chris Murphy, for his support for what she called "extremist legislation."
“He voted for the extreme abortion ban, he voted to take away money from public schools and send it to private schools, and just last week he voted to let 18 year olds openly carry guns without any training or a background check," she said. "If I’m elected, I’ll work to protect women’s rights, support public education, and bring common sense to Columbia.”
House District 98 sits in Dorchester County and includes parts of Summerville and North Charleston. For more information about Dr. Sonja Ogletree Satani’s campaign, visit www.sonjaogletreesatani4sc98.
