In this episode, Grace interviews Kathryne Harvey, the Chair of the Spartanburg Democratic Party. Spartanburg is one of the fastest-growing areas of the state with high investment levels. Harvey details her focus on local issues such as healthcare, economic development, and sensible growth that benefits the long-standing community. Harvey emphasizes the importance of elevating Democratic voices in the local political discourse of a highly Republican-dominated landscape and a focused approach on issues-based rather than a party-based strategy.
