Ralph Norman (SC-5 - R)

Compare

There’s one major principle that guides how Ralph Norman legislates: “The federal government needs to be cut.” Norman, a real-estate developer and former state legislator, is an uncompromising fiscal conservative. Norman shares the anti-establishment bent of his predecessor in South Carolina’s 5th District, Mick Mulvaney. He has a hardline anti-immigrant stance and is a concealed-carry permit holder in South Carolina.
