Katie Crosby for SC House District 44

Katie Crosby is running to build stability, create opportunity, and deliver practical solutions for families in the community. From safer roads and smart growth to strong schools and healthy families, her focus is on listening to real concerns and getting real results — not playing political games.

Ashley Painter for SC House District 117

33-year-old wife, mom, social worker, and small-business owner. When she isn’t advocating for South Carolina families, you’ll find her crocheting, binge-watching her favorite shows, or holding Jordan Pace accountable—often with a healthy dose of trolling.

Kelly Hough for SC House District 114

I’m a nurse, a mother, a wife, a daughter, and yes, a proud dog mom. I understand what families in South Carolina and District 114 are balancing every single day. I’ve lived the education gaps, the financial pressures, the healthcare barriers, and the ongoing conversations around women’s rights and civil liberties. Challenges that have shaped our communities for generations.
