Wilson vs. Boroughs? Here’s a guide to SC’s 2nd Congressional District race
So, it’s Election Day, you live in South Carolina’s 2nd Congressional District, and you still don’t know who to vote for.
That’s okay. Welcome to The State’s Procrastinator’s Guide to the SC-2 Election.
U.S. Rep. Joe Wilson, who’s served in Congress since 2001, is facing his toughest competition in years. Democrat Adair Ford Boroughs, formerly a U.S. Department of Justice attorney, has caught the eyes of donors, bringing in more money each quarter than the Springdale Republican.
Though Boroughs is winning the cash race, it’s hard to know where the candidates actually stand with voters. No reliable polling has been publicly released about the race in the 2nd District.
