The South Carolina Young Republicans (SCYR) have elected Micah Rea as their new chairman following the resignation of Joe Bowers amid allegations of inappropriate behavior. Bowers stepped down after being accused of displaying a nude image of himself at an event. In a letter, Palmetto State GOP official Christen Norman claimed Bowers showed her a nude photo while campaigning. Rea, a political operative, will lead the organization as it prepares for a national meeting in 2025.
Greenville young Republican chairman Jack Stott, who had criticized Bowers, supported Rea in the special election for the chairmanship. Rea’s vision for SCYR includes recruiting, training, and electing Young Republicans to shape the party’s future. SCYR members and chapter chairs affirmed this vision by choosing Rea to serve the remainder of Bowers’ term. Rea pledged to lead with integrity and honor, expressing excitement for the organization’s future.
In a press statement, Rea promised to share his comprehensive vision and strategic plan for SCYR in the coming days. The organization looks toward a promising future under his leadership, aiming to grow and strengthen the party in South Carolina. Stay tuned to FITSNews for updates on Palmetto State politics.
