I’m going to level with you - we missed our November fundraising goal.
That puts real pressure on us as we head into the final weeks of the year.
Our very first end of quarter fundraising deadline of this entire campaign is coming up at the end of this month. This is the moment when everyone will judge our strength. Reporters, donors, opponents. If we come up short again, they will say this movement doesn’t have what it takes.
I have spent my life proving people wrong. They said a kid like me could never make something of himself. They said I couldn’t beat a 22-year incumbent. They said someone with my background could never lead in this state.
They were wrong every single time - because people like you stood with me.
I’m Jermaine Johnson, and I’m running to be the next Governor of South Carolina.
I wasn’t born into power — I fought my way into it. I'm not a career politician or a wealthy insider.
I'm a husband, father, and fighter who knows what it’s like to grow up with nothing and still keep pushing forward.
