Clay Middleton Announces Angela Kouters as Campaign Manager
Clay Middleton (right), a candidate for Mayor of Charleston, announced he has hired Angela Kouters to manage his campaign.
Kouters is a veteran political operative who lives in Charleston and began her career working for the late U.S. Senator Fritz Hollings. She is a College of Charleston graduate and brings an extensive political background to the campaign.
“I am thrilled to have Angela serve as my campaign manager,” Middleton said. “She is smart, focused, driven, and has good instincts. Her experience in public service, campaigns, and governing provides a unique blend of expertise that are well suited for this position. I’ve enjoyed working with her and look forward to having her lead our campaign efforts.”
After starting with Hollings, she went on to work for John Kerry’s presidential campaign, the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, as chief of staff for three U.S. House members and as a director of legislative affairs for President Barack Obama at the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and the U.S. Office of Personnel Management. Kouters also served as Chief of Staff to Mayor Pete Buttigieg in South Bend, IN and worked for Senator Amy Klobuchar’s presidential campaign.
“I got to know Clay when we both worked on Capitol Hill and we share the same values of public service and taking care of our community,” Kouters said. “I’m thrilled to work for such a strong and dedicated leader to improve Charleston.”
