Curtis Loftis (R)
2) Continue to enhance the people’s right to a transparent and accountable government. When costly mistakes are made the people should know “who, what, when and where” so that those mistakes are not made a second time.
3) Specifically, in my term as Treasurer I have: grown Future Scholar, the state’s 529 college savings plan, to more than 200,000 account holders and nearly $6 billion in assets under management, as of August 2022. Also, my administration has returned more than $300 million in unclaimed funds to South Carolinians – more than all previous state treasurers combined. The taxpayers work diligently for their money and their government should be equally diligent in accounting for and protecting it.
Sarah Work (Alliance)
It is unethical for any state official to use state program dollars to further their political agenda. I will be introducing legislation that inhibits politicians from using advertising dollars for state programs to broadcast their name or face.
As an Alliance Party candidate I am term limited by my party to 3 terms in office. We need a world with citizen leaders, not a political class.
