Democratic Legislative Campaign Committee Spotlights Rep. Chardale Murray

Press Release

The Democratic Legislative Campaign Committee (DLCC) has announced that State Representative Chardale Murray (D-Charleston) has been named a Spotlight candidate.

The DLCC said that candidates who receive a spotlight “displayed extraordinary leadership while fighting for their communities.”

“It’s an honor to be spotlighted by the DLCC,” Murray said. “As a Lowcountry native, I know how important it is to create more affordable housing, improve access to broadband, and expand Medicaid. I’ll continue to fight for these policies to uplift our community and improve the lives of all South Carolinians.”

“Democratic state legislators are on the frontlines defending and expanding our access to health

care, education funding, abortion access, and the right to vote,” said DLCC President Jessica Post. “During the Trump administration, the DLCC and state Democrats flipped hundreds of seats from red to blue, elected strong candidates from all across the country, and returned over half a dozen chambers to Democratic control. We are proud to stand with Representative Murray and include her in our growing list of amazing candidates who are committed to making a difference in their communities.”

Murray was first elected in 2020, becoming the first Black woman to represent District 116. The owner of a mortuary company, Murray has been a strong advocate for affordable housing, expanding Medicaid, and investing more in trade programs.
