The South Carolina Democrat Party is refusing to allow a black candidate running for sheriff in Charleston County to appear on the ballot.
South Carolina Democrat Party Chair Christale Spain argued in a letter from March 5 to the Director of the Charleston County Board of Voter Registration and Elections that she would not be certifying Alan Ali, an African American and former patrol lieutenant with the Charleston County Sheriff’s Office, to appear on the ballot as a candidate for sheriff, according to“I am not certifying Alan Ali for the ballot for the primary election on June 11, 2024, pursuant to South Carolina Democratic Party...
In 1997, after moving to Charleston, Ali joined the City of Charleston Police Department. A year later, he went on to join the Charleston County Sheriff’s Office, where he served on a uniformed patrol division team and was later a member of the Charleston County Sheriff’s Office SWAT team. “I think it’s hearing the personal stories of people in and around the community, in Edisto Island and McClellanville and around Hollywood, and just hearing these personal stories over and over again, that people are looking for fundamental change,” Ali said in a statement at the time.
Ali is running against incumbent Sheriff Kristin Graziano, who was elected as Charleston County Sheriff in Nov. 2020.
