Camden, South Carolina – On October 30, 2025, the KCGOP Executive Committee passed, without opposing votes, seven censure motions addressing Chairman Autumn Dunlap for sustained procedural misconduct.

It’s hard to believe this even needs to be said.

A Kershaw County service member, currently forward-deployed to serve our nation, is being denied his right to representation within his own Republican Party here at home. Before deploying, he followed every proper procedure and designated his wife as his proxy—so his vote and voice would still be heard while he fulfills his duty overseas.

But the Kershaw County GOP Chair has refused to recognize that proxy, citing reasons that are not only wrong under Party rules, but morally indefensible. Let that sink in: A man who risks his life defending our freedoms abroad is being stripped of one of his own right here on American soil.
