Congratulations to South Carolina Governor-elect Alan Wilson, Congressman-elect Wes Climer, and Republicans across the state on their victories last night!

The voters have spoken loud and clear that South Carolina needs bold, principled, America First leadership now more than ever. Politicians who prioritize power and self-aggrandizement over the people they represent will not be tolerated. Voters are tired of political insiders dictating their choices and taking grassroots conservatives for granted.

With just 20 legislative days remaining, the fight is far from over. We must remain focused on getting conservative policies across the finish line and protecting the progress we've made over the past two years. We cannot allow the radical Left to undo those victories.

South Carolina is growing fast, but our infrastructure is NOT keeping up.

Responsible growth is a GOOD thing for our state, but it must be matched with better roads, reliable water systems, and critical infrastructure our communities can depend on.

We need a PLAN to invest wisely and prepare for our state's future!! foxcarolina.com/2026/09/22/sou…

South Carolina is at a turning point. As I said repeatedly on the campaign trail, my fight was never with other Republicans. It's with the socialist Democrats and the RINOs who enable them.

I’m proud of the race we ran and grateful to every volunteer, donor, family member, and friend who stood with us. Together, we fought for the things that matter: lower taxes, responsible spending, secure borders, individual freedom, and a government that answers to the people, not the political class.

The primary may be over, but the stakes have never been higher. The radical socialist agenda coming from the Left is a direct threat to the values that have made our state so great. We cannot afford division, complacency, or to sit on the sidelines while the future of our country is at stake.

I respect the decision of South Carolina voters, and I congratulate Senator Darline Graham on winning the Republican nomination. I will support our Republican nominee in November because defeating the Democrats and protecting our conservative values must remain the priority.

We have work to do. We have a state to protect. And we have a future to fight for.

While the outcome of this election wasn't what we worked for, I respect the decision of South Carolina voters and wish my opponent well in the work ahead.

But today, more than anything, I want to say thank you.

I am incredibly proud of the race we ran and grateful for the trust you placed in me and this campaign.

We knew from the beginning this would be a hard-fought race. In the final two weeks, over $8 million dollars poured into South Carolina to attack me, distort my record, and demonize this campaign. We were outspent 5-to-1, but we never allowed ourselves to be dragged into the kind of campaign our opponents chose to run.

We stayed focused on the issues. We talked about the out-of-control spending and debt threatening our children's future. We talked about securing our border, protecting our freedoms, and standing up to the Washington establishment. And we talked about what it means to have a Senator who will fight for the people of South Carolina—not the political class in Washington.

I wouldn't change that.

What we built together was real. Volunteers knocked on doors in the summer heat. People drove hours to attend events in communities that don't always get a visit from a Senate campaign. Families put signs in their yards and talked to their friends and neighbors. And you invested your hard-earned money in this campaign because you believed, as I do, that the times we are living in are too important to sit on the sidelines.

I ran for the United States Senate because I believe South Carolina deserves a fighter in Washington—someone who won't back down and won't go along just to get along. The outcome of this election doesn't change that belief.

This campaign was never about me. It was about all of us who believe South Carolina and this country are worth fighting for.

I'm proud of the campaign we ran. I'm proud of the team that built it. And I am grateful, more than I can put into words, for your friendship, your support, and the faith you placed in me.

The election may be over, but the fight for the principles we believe in is not.

Keep fighting. Our state and our country are worth it.

With gratitude,
Ralph Norman

Don’t forget! Polls CLOSE at 7:00 PM! If you’re in line, STAY IN LINE! Your voice MUST be heard in this important election! 🗳️
