South Carolina Primary
Palmetto State voters head to the polls on Saturday.
Before South Carolinians head to the polls on Saturday, voters heard from President Trump at a Keep America Great rally tonight in North Charleston. In just three years in office, President Trump has undeniably delivered a record of results for all South Carolinians.
In South Carolina:
- The economy has added 131,000 jobs in the state since the President was elected. This includes over 19,000 manufacturing jobs.
- The unemployment rate in South Carolina has decreased from 4.7% to 2.3% during the Trump Administration.
- The historic Tax Cuts and Jobs Act resulted in over 3,000 new jobs and an average tax cut of $1,341 in the state. Over the next decade 17,000 jobs will be created as a result of the tax cuts.
- Over 152,000 South Carolinians have come off food stamps under President Trump’s administration.
In stark contrast, the 2020 Democrat field once again peddled their radical big government agenda on the debate stage in Charleston Tuesday night.
