Booker in South Carolina spotlight – New Jersey Globe
It’s a big weekend for U.S. Senator Cory Booker as he eyes a potential bid for the Democratic presidential nomination in 2028.
He’s in South Carolina, headling the state party’s annual dinner on Friday night, along with his colleague from Georgia, Rev. Raphael Warnock.
Today, Booker will attend Rep. Jim Clyburn’s annual Fish Fry, one of the biggest Democratic events in the state.
The weekend also brings Booker together with Christale Spain, the state political director of Booker’s 2020 presidential campaign and, since last year, the South Carolina Democratic State Chair. Five years ago, Booker and Kamala Harris competed to bring Spain onto their respective campaign teams.
Booker has made multiple trips to South Carolina over the last four years.
With Booker on the South Carolina trip is Mo Butler, his top New Jersey political advisor.
