Governor-Elect Alan Wilson

Jennifer and I are praying for the Lexington County Sheriff’s deputy who was shot in the line of duty today. We are praying for his full recovery and for strength and comfort for his family during this difficult time. Our hearts are also with Sheriff Jay Koon and the entire Lexington County Sheriff’s Department.

For over 30 years, I have had the honor of wearing the uniform of the United States Army. From serving in Iraq to serving alongside some of the finest men and women our nation has to offer, my military service has been one of the greatest privileges of my life. Today, on Veterans Day, we honor the brave Americans who answered the call to serve, sacrificed for our freedoms and defended the nation we love. I know that service is more than wearing a uniform. It is a commitment to something greater than yourself, a willingness to sacrifice and a bond with those who have stood beside you. May God bless our veterans, our military families and the United States of America. Happy Veterans Day!

My first job taught me the value of hard work. Now, those lessons are coming full circle as I prepare to serve as South Carolina’s next governor. It was special to return to Reeley’s Body Shop, where I had my very first job washing cars, to announce our transition team. Just like the work done in that shop, our mission is to repair what’s broken, improve what isn’t working and make government work better for the people of South Carolina. collisionweek.com/2026/11/10…

It was great joining my friend Trey Gowdy last night on Fox News! The power of government belongs to the people. As elected officials, that power is borrowed, and we must govern with that understanding every single day. I will govern as a conservative while keeping my mind and my hand open to anyone willing to work together to move South Carolina forward. That's the kind of governor I intend to be.

Everything I told South Carolinians I would do, I intend to honor. In my interview with @postandcourier, I discussed our transition plans, the Families First Audit Initiative and our plans to bring greater accountability to state government. Our commitment to South Carolina families is just getting started. The people want action, and that's exactly what we're preparing to deliver.

Welcome to my official X account as Governor-Elect of South Carolina! I'm honored by the trust South Carolinians have placed in me. I'll use this account to share updates on our transition, priorities and the work ahead to put South Carolina families first. Let's get to work!
