Meet the Primary Candidates: Congressional District 3 and 4

The fight for South Carolina’s future looks very different depending on which district you live in. In Congressional District 3, Democratic candidate Eunice Laemacher makes the case for expanding healthcare access, lowering everyday costs, and investing in housing and infrastructure in one of South Carolina’s fastest-growing regions. In Congressional District 4, Republican challenger Robert Lee argues the GOP has drifted from its promises, calling for more government transparency, less foreign intervention, and a tougher stance on political corruption. Two Upstate races, two very different visions for where South Carolina goes next. 00:00 Introduction 01:48 Eunice Lehmacher 17:52 Robert E. Lee Eunice Lehmacher https://www.euniceforsc.com/ Robert E.
