Rep. Jim Clyburn, whose last-minute endorsement helped propel Joe Biden's 2020 White House campaign, is backing a former staffer in her effort to lead South Carolina's Democrats, as the state prepares to host the party's opening presidential primary in 2024.
In a statement provided to The Associated Press ahead of an official announcement Wednesday, Clyburn said Christale Spain “represents the battle-tested, steady leadership the South Carolina Democratic Party needs as the national party turns to us to kick-off the nomination process.”
