<h2>Welcome SCDP Delegates, Alternates, and Guests</h2> My name is Edwina Winter, and I'm running to be your Democratic Nominee for Secretary of State, one of the statewide offices on par with the Governor of South Carolina. I am running for South Carolina Secretary of State because I believe deeply in the promise of South Carolina and the opportunities this country provides. As an immigrant, I came here believing in the ideals of fairness, hard work, and honest government. South Carolina welcomed me, and I want to give back by serving the people of this state. I am running to bring fresh energy, strengthen transparency, protect seniors and consumers from fraud, and ensure the Secretary of State’s office works for everyone who calls South Carolina home. During my 38 year career, I have worked all over the world, doing business in the UK, China, Japan, South Korea and Europe. Closer to home I have been a Senior Executive in a multinational company. I am small business owner, real estate agent and have set up a non -profit in the state to benefit people. I am also a notary. So I have touched nearly all aspects of what the Secretary of State's office can do. So I am asking for your support and your vote for the Democratic Party June 9th Primary. You can sign-up to volunteer for my campaign at: <a href="https://www.mobilize.us/edwinawinterforsouthcarolina/">https://www.mobilize.us/edwinawinterforsouthcarolina/</a> And donate at <a href="https://secure.actblue.com/donate/edwina-winter-1?refcode=scdpconvention">https://secure.actblue.com/donate/edwina-winter-1?refcode=scdpconvention</a>

Born in England and raised in part in Ethiopia, she developed an early global perspective that would later shape her professional path. After studying agriculture and earning top national honors, she transitioned into construction and infrastructure, eventually launching her own company which led infrastructure projects across the UK.She went on to hold senior leadership roles in major engineering and energy efforts, including managing complex construction projects and helping lead the decommissioning of a nuclear power plant. Her work eventually took her onto the international stage as a senior executive, where she oversaw business operations across Asia-Pacific and contributed to critical infrastructure solutions, including emergency response systems following the Fukushima disaster. Throughout her career, she has combined sharp business acumen with the ability to lead large teams, navigate high-stakes projects, and engage across cultures and industries.

<h2>How to handle donations on your website</h2>Run does not process donations directly on our platform, as is standard with most political and advocacy sites.Campaigns are often required to comply with reporting requirements, donation limits, and other regulations, so using a donation processor that specializes in serving campaigns is generally a good idea. Sign up with a donation processor and then on your Pages sidebar, click the Link icon on the Donate page and add the link to your donation page. Some common options for donation processing include:<ul><li><a href="https://secure.actblue.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">ActBlue</a></li><li><a href="https://www.campaigndeputy.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Campaign Deputy</a> </li><li><a href="https://goodchange.app/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">GoodChange</a></li><li><a href="https://numero.ai/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Numero</a></li><li><a href="https://www.ngpvan.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">NGP VAN</a></li></ul>
