Dedicated to connecting with the people of District 13. I am John Jefferson, and I am here to bring a relatable alternative to South Carolina politics. Together, we can build a future that honors our roots and drives sustainable economic growth for every family.

Rooted in Greenwood, Focused on District 13

I am not a politician. I am a parent, a business owner, and a lifelong resident of District 13.

I have served on my Town Council in Ninety Six and sat as the chair of the finance committee during my time.

I currently attend Siloam Baptist Church and rely on my Christian values to guide me daily. 

Politically, I would describe myself as an authentic conservative. I strongly believe in personal and individual liberty. I believe in physical responsibility. I believe in smaller government, and I will push back on government over reach.

My philosophy is simple...Government can't do all things for all people, but should do what people can't do for themselves.

Key Issues We're Fighting For

01

Local Infrastructure

We have one of the highest gas taxes in the nation implemented to repair our roads and still have seen no changes. I would prepose that gas taxes collected from Greenwood County be returned to Greenwood County. If the State will not fix our roads, then let us fix our own by returning our money. 

02

Term Limits

Our local, state, and federal government are filled with career politicians. In our country, incumbent office holders are nearly impossible to beat because the rules are stacked in the incumbents favor. If elected, I will work to limit legislative terms. 

03

Tort Reform

Many businesses across the state are affected by run away insurance premiums and fear of frivolous and unfair lawsuits. Current legislation does little to protect these businesses that are essential to local economies. 

My Voice Is Yours

I promise to stay true to my values while acting as your voice in Columbia.  I will work to cut wasteful spending that affects the families and businesses in our district.  Protecting our constitutional rights and ensuring the government remains accountable to the people while holding the line on government over reach.
