HILTON HEAD, S.C. — Democratic presidential candidate Andrew Yang will visit the Palmetto State for the third time on Thursday, Aug. 15, visiting Hilton Head Island, Bluffton, Okatie, and Beaufort.
Yang will arrive on Thursday morning and throughout the day, he will tour the Don Ryan Center of Innovation, meet with members of the Beaufort County Black Chamber of Commerce, visit Hopeful Horizons, a children's advocacy, domestic violence, and rape crisis center, and participate in a town hall hosted by the North of the Broad Democratic Club.
In addition, Yang will attend two Meet and Greets, one hosted by the South of the Broad Democratic Club in Hilton Head Island, and the other hosted by the Democrats of Sun City in Okatie.
Dr. Jermaine Johnson, South Carolina Campaign Chair, said Yang's trip to the state has already started garnering attention from the public.
"Voters are elated that he is coming back to South Carolina, and we're excited to have a variety of different meetings, conversations, and events planned," Johnson said.
"What's remarkable is that although not every part of this state has broadband internet access, in every area we've visited, we've met South Carolinians who are part of the Yang Gang or believe in Yang's message."
