Democrat Lee Johnson, a candidate for the U.S. Senate, has now campaigned in 12 counties in South Carolina following a marathon day of campaign travel on Saturday that included stops in Greenwood, Marlboro and Richland Counties.
“Folks across our state have been left behind by politicians like Lindsey Graham,” Johnson said. “Our campaign is about showing up, listening to these folks, and giving them a voice to talk about the issues facing their communities. We’re going to visit every county in South Carolina, and we’re going to do it again and again throughout our campaign.”
On Saturday, June 7th, Johnson traveled to Greenwood County to speak at a breakfast meeting hosted by the Greenwood County Democratic Party, Marlboro County to participate in a candidate forum, and Richland County to attend the South Carolina NAACP Freedom Fund Celebration.
On Thursday, June 5th, Johnson delivered remarks at the Bluffton Democrats monthly meeting in his second visit to Beaufort County.
On Tuesday, June 3rd, Johnson delivered remarks at the Jasper County Democrats monthly meeting in Jasper County.
On Monday, June 2nd, Johnson delivered remarks at an event hosted by the Democratic Women of Kershaw County in his second visit to Kershaw County.
Johnson’s recent campaign travel comes on top of visits to Greenville, York, Sumter, Charleston, Lee, and Spartanburg Counties.
