The Horry County Republican Party on Saturday selected a slate of new leaders who will guide the local party through the first half of Joe Biden’s presidency and the 2022 elections.
The new leadership will — some hope — steer the influential local party out of a tumultuous period that’s been marked by back-and-forth bickering, contentious meetings and confrontations between leaders. The new leaders will also be tasked with ushering the party through a consequential midterm election, one in which the county’s congressional representative, Tom Rice (SC-7th), the chairman of the county council and the chairman of the school district will be up for re-election.
Gathered in a large conference room at the Barefoot Resort in North Myrtle Beach, 369 delegates cast votes for local party chair, vice-chair, state executive committee person — who represents the party in Columbia — and a slate of delegates to the state GOP’s convention. The two current leaders, co-chairs Dreama Purdue and Ed Carey, had said they were not running for leadership positions this time around, meaning party members selected almost-all new leaders Saturday.
Roger Slagle, a businessman who mostly worked in Asia but who recently returned home to the Grand Strand, was named the party’s new county chair. Tracy “Beanz” Diaz, a longtime Republican operative who got her start in politics working for former Texas Rep. Ron Paul and in the Tea Party movement of the 2010s, was named the new state executive committee person.
