As the 2024 general election approaches, the Beaufort County Democratic Party (BCDP) has opened a satellite office in the Beaufort County Black Chamber of Commerce building on Bladen Street in Beaufort.
This announcement comes as Kamala Harris is the Democratic nominee for president. She would be the first Black/Asian-American female President in American history.
The Beaufort County Democratic Party is running a historic full slate of local, S.C. House and S.C. Senate candidates this cycle, including nine women, eight of whom are first-time candidates.
“The enthusiasm around Kamala Harris is electric, but we want local voters to know the Democrats have impressive candidates up and down the ticket. We have been inundated with volunteer requests and interest from voters across the political spectrum who are ready for the kind of change that Democrats deliver,” Beaufort County Democratic Party Chair Kathleen Hughes said in a news release. “Opening a second office North of the Broad will be essential to supporting our candidates and executing our organizing efforts on the ground.”
The BCDP headquarters is located at 39 Persimmon Street, Suite 201 in Bluffton, and the new satellite office is open at 711 Bladen Street, Suite 310 in Beaufort. For more information, visit www.beaufortcountydems.org.
