One week away from the U.S. midterm elections, Horry County Republicans held their monthly meeting tonight in anticipation of next Tuesday’s “Red Wave”.
Projections are that Republicans could take as many as 240 U.S. House seats and perhaps even gain control of the U.S. Senate.
Horry County GOP Chairman Reese Boyd spoke to a significant group of 168 people who attended the meeting.
Jessie Waters, of Fox News, said today that he predicted a red tsunami nation-wide come next Tuesday.
Horry County is a Republican county. Republicans are expected to run the table, county-wide, next Tuesday.
One possible exception is longstanding, Democratic Representative Jackie E. “Coach” Hayes of District 55. Redistricting now puts a significant portion of his district in Horry County.
Local Republicans excited about potential “Red Wave”
Republicans need to win 218 seats in the House of Representatives to gain control of that chamber. 51 seats in the U.S. Senate will flip that chamber into the hands of the Republicans as well.
