Lexington GOP Update & State EC Meeting
Simple Theft? RICO? A Criminal Conspiracy?
The SCGOP had their quarterly State Executive Committee meeting this past Saturday in Columbia … and it was a rather quiet and uneventful meeting (details to follow) … except for one major issue … the recognition of Pamela Godwin as the duly elected Chair of the Lexington County Republican Party (LCRP).
Chair Godwin won election in a landslide (75% +/-) against former SC State Rep, former candidate for SC Attorney General, and local attorney Todd Atwater (HERE & HERE) back in April 2023 … but like many TRUMP supporting County GOPs in South Carolina, some factions have been unwilling to accept the election of said parties and are seeking to disrupt party operations. #FollowTheMoney!!!
It also did not help that Ms. Godwin oversaw the censure of Senator Katrina Shealy (HERE) for her vote against the Heartbeat Bill (HERE) … something the SCGOP Resolutions Committee, as Chaired by Terry Hardesty, State EC from Berkeley County, has refused to allow to come to the full State Executive Committee for a vote.
Why No SCGOP Censure?
SIDEBAR ISSUE: Ask yourself … why won’t the SCGOP “Censure “the three Republican “Sister Senators” who voted against LIFE? And remember, whether Terry & Chairman Drew McKissick like it or not, “The Right to Life” is the #1 issue on the SC Republican Platform!!! (HERE)
Mental Manipulation?
I has been widely “misreported” on social media and via some questionable media sources (HERE) that that Chair Godwin had been removed from office.
Removed as in past tense … already gone.
RECOGNIZED BY THE SCGOP: But Ms. Godwin was signed-in and allowed entry to the SCGOP State Executive Committee meeting on Saturday on behalf of the LCRP … permitted to speak … all indicating that the SCGOP clearly recognizes Pamela Godwin as the current Chair for the LCRP.
As many know it has been the longstanding position of the SCGOP that a County Officer, elected at a County Convention, can not be removed unless they resign or violate the very specific provisions of the SCGOP Rule 5(e). Any local vote or local rules to the contrary are null & void.
The Anderson county Example: This SCGOP position on removal of a County Chair was made clear when several years ago the Anderson County Republican Party (ACRP) Executive Committee UNANIMOUSLY voted out then chair Cheryl Teague-Cuthrell … and the SCGOP refused to acknowledge the removal. [NOTE: Reportedly Ms. Cuthrell had attempted to cancel the local ACRP Executive Committee meeting claiming to need to be with a sick relative (and a likely vote against her) … but when it was discovered that instead of being with her sick relative she was attending the Greenville County GOP Bronze Elephant Dinner the same night … the vote was unanimous for removal.]
WOW!!!
SCGOP Rules Committee Guidance: Ironically, as part of the regular rule guidance provided to the SCGOP Executive Committee, the Rules Committee addressed a similar issue this past Saturday regarding replacement of Precinct Officers. Regardless of local rules, no Precinct Officer elected during ReOrg can be replaced against their will (except under very specific SCGOP rules exceptions). Simply stated, there are no “recall” provisions.
Like it or not … #NoExceptions!!!
WHY No Exceptions? We can only speculate, but if it were possible to recall or removed elected Party officials from ReOrg and County Convention … or State Convention for that matter … this would be going on all over South Carolina, all the time, and would likely become unmanagable. We can’t remove “real” elected officials here in South Carolina until the next election (yet) … and we can’t remove “Party” elected officials either.

Criminality?
Back to Lexington …. the “splinter group” in there has taken it to a new level. Two of the five elected LCRP County Officers (the 1st & 3rd Vice Chairs) have apparently stepped way over the line by ….
(#1) absconded with the LCRP Facebook page,
(#2) set-up a new LCRP website on 8/11/2023 (actual page HERE, faux page HERE), and most troubling
(#3) are soliciting funds from unknowing individuals.
Taking money under false pretenses … that is a serious problem … and perhaps a crime???
Faux Chair Election?
And to top it all off … the splinter group is purporting to have a new election TONIGHT, October 2nd at the same time as the regularly scheduled LCRP Business Meeting occurring at their long-term LCRP venue, the Lexington Chamber and Visitors Center.
As per the splinter groups Facebook post (on the original LCRP Facebook page which they have illegally usurped), this faux election will occur down the road at the Flight Deck Restaurant.
Lots More to Come!!!
Obviously if your intent was to support the old guard RINO “establishment”, creating this sort of division and confusion is exactly how you would do it. It is not something the old TEA Party folks ever did … but we are not dealing with the old TEA Party folks either are we! The Uniparty is omnipresent … so as we teach, “Watch what they DO, not what they SAY.”
We suspect there will be a lot more to report on the LCRP in the coming weeks … so stay tuned and follow the facts, the Rules & the Law.
Remember, Precinct ReOrg, County Conventions and the SC Republican Party are all ultimately governed by State & Federal Election LAW. If you think the “law” considers January 6th an “insurrection” … what exactly is going on in Lexington and places like Greenville and Charleston? These aren’t simple homeowners association or garden club disputes … there are serious legal and political governance implications at stake.
Simple Theft? RICO? A Criminal Conspiracy? (HERE)
Stay tuned … this will likely get very interesting.

Charlie Kirk
October 14th, 1993 – September 10th, 2025
WikiPedia: HERE
Assassinated at 31.
We are utterly shattered by the assassination and tragic loss of Charlie Kirk, a radiant and relentless voice in our movement. His passing tears at our hearts and leaves a void that echoes with grief.
Charlie was fatally shot on September 10, 2025, while speaking to thousands at Utah Valley University in Orem, Utah, during his American Comeback Tour. A single shot was fired from a nearby building, striking him as he sat at his trademark “Prove Me Wrong” table, engaging with students and attendees. Law enforcement has confirmed a manhunt is underway for the shooter, who fled after the attack.
In moments like this, it is easy to cast blame on the Democratic Party and the mainstream media, which have too often enabled the conditions for political violence in America. On a national level, they bear much responsibility.
But here in South Carolina, we must also confront the painful truth within our own ranks. Hatred and anger have taken root in the SCGOP as well. From the 2021 ReOrg FRAUD in Greenville, to the refusal to seat Pickens delegates at the 2025 SCGOP State Convention, and so much in between—these acts are desperate attempts, no different than what Democrats do nationally, to cling to perceived power and influence in our state.
We will not stand for it. Lies and hate will be called out, exposed, and rooted out. They have no place anywhere—not in our political community, not now, not ever, and certainly not in South Carolina.
Leaders in South Carolina must learn to truly lead. Too few do today. While true America First conservatives lead with courage, too many politicians, candidates, party officials, and activists choose instead to tolerate deception, to go along to get along. But know this: if you tolerate lies, you are part of the problem.
In the shadow of this fresh grief, we also pause to remember the enduring wound of September 11, 2001—a day that forever altered our nation’s sense of security and unity.
Charlie’s memory demands that we rise above, uniting in truth with an unwavering commitment to honor his legacy—not with bitterness, but with compassion, strength, and steadfast opposition to evil in all its forms, wherever it may arise.
Next Man Up.
