Annie McDaniel

Dr. Chuck Epps

Former Fort Mill School District Superintendent

"For several years now, I’ve had the opportunity to see Mallory Dittmer’s commitment to our community up close. Her work has consistently centered on protecting and strengthening public education in South Carolina, which is near and dear to my heart.

She has always approached her advocacy with a thoughtful, nonpartisan mindset focused on what is best for our children, our state, and our beloved Fort Mill community. She understands that strong public schools are essential to strong communities and has advocated as such from the school board to the state house, and through her leadership in building CAPE York County - a space where parents and teachers work together to support our students and our schools.

I am proud to endorse Mallory as I believe she will bring that same dedication and collaborative spirit to Congress.”

Spencer Wetmore

South Carolina State House Representative

“I was proud to work alongside Mallory Dittmer during my 2024 campaign, where I saw firsthand her work ethic, strategic insight, and unwavering commitment to the people she serves.

Mallory brings a rare combination of compassion, intelligence, and determination to everything she does, and she understands that public service is about listening to communities and fighting for what matters most to them.

Her testimony earlier this month before the House Constitutional Laws subcommittee on redistricting was thoughtful, informed, and courageous — exactly the kind of leadership we need at a time when trust in our democratic process is being tested.

I’m proud to support Mallory Dittmer for Congress because South Carolina deserves leaders who put people ahead of politics and refuse to back down from difficult fights.”

Kambrell Garvin

South Carolina State House Representative

“Mallory Dittmer has been doing the work and advocating for our communities for years. Her commitment to give the people a voice and serve South Carolinians over special interests will make her an excellent advocate for our state in D.C. She has my full support and endorsement.”

Courtney Waters

South Carolina State House Representative

“I’ve had the opportunity to witness Mallory Dittmer advocate and testify at the State House many times, and she consistently brings thoughtful, principled advocacy to the issues that matter most to South Carolinians. Whether speaking up to protect public education, defend women’s rights, support diversity and inclusion, or safeguard our democratic processes, Mallory shows up prepared, informed, and committed to doing what’s right. Her voice has been an important one in our state’s conversations, always grounded in respect and an insistence of putting people over politics. That’s why I’m proud to support Mallory for Congress. She has the courage to stand up, the experience to lead, and the integrity to represent South Carolina’s Fifth District with the seriousness it deserves.”

Jennifer Hutchinson

Rock Hill School Board Vice Chair

“Public education is one of my top priorities when I look for a candidate to support. I can wholeheartedly say, this woman is a fierce advocate for not only public education but many issues that are important and matter to me and my family. I am honored to support Mallory Dittmer because not only do I believe in her vision, I’ve personally seen her do the work! I am excited to cast my vote for true change and a brighter future!”

Doug Echols

Former 20-Year Mayor of Rock Hill

I am proud to endorse Mallory Dittmer for Congress in South Carolina’s 5th District.

Over the years, I had the privilege of knowing and working alongside former Congressman John Spratt, who represented this district with integrity, seriousness, and a deep commitment to public service. John believed that leadership was about doing the hard work, putting people above politics, and never losing sight of the communities you serve. I see many of those same qualities in Mallory Dittmer.

At a time when too many politicians stay silent, Mallory has stepped forward and shown real courage. She has stood up against partisan redistricting efforts that threaten fair representation in South Carolina, testified publicly, organized town halls, and consistently shown up for people across the district — all while carrying the burden of a demanding campaign schedule.

After 20 years as Mayor, I know how important it is to have leaders who are accessible, thoughtful, and willing to fight for what is right even when it is difficult.

Our district deserves leadership rooted in the same spirit of service and integrity that John Spratt exemplified for so many years. Mallory Dittmer is ready to carry that tradition forward for a new generation.

I am proud to support her candidacy for Congress.

Jim Rex

Former SC Superintendent of Education and National Chair, Alliance Party

“I’ve spent my career fighting for strong public schools and a government that serves people rather than political parties.

Years ago, Mallory Dittmer stepped forward as a thoughtful and determined advocate for public education and the communities that depend on it. She has consistently shown a level of maturity and integrity that is lacking in politics today.

What impresses me most about Mallory is her refusal to play partisan games. At a time when politics too often rewards division, she has insisted on putting people first -- focusing on practical solutions and unifying issues that bring people together. Our country needs exactly that kind of leadership in Washington. 

I’m proud to support Mallory Dittmer for Congress and believe she will represent South Carolina’s Fifth District with integrity, independence, and a deep commitment to the public good.”
