as far as taking south carolina backwards, everybody else is coming to south carolina and from all over the world to invest in the people of south carolina and this place and i have announced, announcements on companies coming into hire out people and they have invested $5.2 billion and this year is not over and broken every record. we have more people working and people are moving that want to be here and to say we are going bab wardz, that is not a fact. we are booming and getting stronger every day and i will do everything we can. >> do you believe our elections are safe, secure and accurate and will you accept the november 8 election in our state? mr. cunningham: the peaceful transfer of power is a cornstone of our democracy. and there are ways in which we can improve our elections. i voted on a bill in congress that would end gerry gerrymandering. and voters should pick their politicians. governor mcmaster signed a bill that gerrymanders all the districts. and ripping our democracy apart and i have seen it firsthand in washington, d.c., what politicians that the only thing they hav

we have a long ways to go in south carolina. we can have safe and secure elections and bring people together but it has to start with reforming our elections. >> and you have said that you will accept the results of the election, is that right? >> -- mr. cunningham: that's right. >> will you accept the results of our november 8 elections. and that they are safe and accurate. gov. mcmaster: we are safe and secure because we finished election reform. and one of the things that we did is allowed two weeks of early voting but we kept that, you have to have the witness on your absentee ballots. and you need to be absentee for certain reasons. that's the one that we need to fight with the local judge and the supreme court backed us up on that in the last election we kept that requirement. we also require audits and we required the paper to be saved it's electronic and you have a paper copy of the ballot coming -- ballot that you stick in there. the experts say that the box that we allow sore is not in these machines and done everythin

really getting pretty close to the coast of south carolina. it was moving north of 14, now at 15 miles per hour. it's continuing to get a little faster. so that will continue as we work our way inland. it's really important to realize it's not just that center point. it really is -- it's been a large storm for most of its lifetime. hurricane force winds extend out 70 miles. and the latest i saw, tropical storm force winds, about 275 miles out from the center. it's big. so it's not just the folks right around the center. there's quite a few communities that see some of these strong winds. did want to say, there's still river flooding back in florida and some of that, it's important that water doesn't drain very fast. so some of those rivers could stay at flood stage and several locations, actually, record flood, could be that way for days, even more than a week. so just something to think about with time. we're not over yet. we're very close to the south carolina coast. the impact, winds, rain bands have already started. there's already been so

they see south carolina that we do things right here. they have seen the biden administration and the successes of the democrat governor and this is the constitution that does not allow the government to take your business away from you to close it down unless there is a good reason. and then they have to pay for it. in these cases around the country except in the red states. the governors are shutting down businesses for no good reason and were not paying anybody anything. those acts are unconstitutional and harmful and go to show when the federal government is outside of the constitution doing things not supposed to be doing, it pomes the storm every time here that is why we do things right and people notice. >> ainsley: i know you've been on the campaign trail and we wish you all the best. >> thank you. >> ainsley: eight more days, right, governor? getting any sleep? >> a little bit. >> ainsley: good deal. we will talk with wonderful, fine folks living in south carolina and eating breakfast at lizard's thicket coming up crime as the t

this is what we call team south carolina. and when you have people like this, experienced and dedicated, who work with the great people of our state, that's when we have good results like this. and as i said, there's damaged. there is some heartbreak. there is work to be done, but all and all, it's a good story, another good story for south carolina, and we are open for business. i emphasized that in north carolina, unc won the other night, and clemson might tonight. i want to thank homeland security. i spoke as well to the fema administrator. i also want to thank the president for his interest. he called. with that, congressman joe wilson. >> thank you, governor, and fellow south carolinians, what an honor to be here. the governor was too humble. indeed, we have team south carolina, our municipal officials, first responders, state agencies, but we have a good captain with our governor, henry mcmaster. i am grateful for his service. as i am here today, i'm flashing back to prior hurricanes and how we have learned lessons. i w

and through south carolina. during this campaign, william becomes a sherman, marching his army through georgia and up through south carolina. union officers and his staff and in his command, and so i have a picture here of sherman staff officers in the 1865, they were very concerned about civilization and how to maintain self control and discipline of soldiers while unleashing them to destroy resources and wage psychological warfare on the confederate population. and so it's really interesting that right before sherman's march, the staff was joined by henry hitchcock. he was new to the war and had been a lawyer in st. louis and he was related to ethan allen hitchcock who is the u.s. commissioner for the exchange of prisoners, and he decides in the fall of 1864, he wants to join the union army. his uncle sets up for him to be on sherman's staff. and hitchcock brings to the war, a typical concern about civilization. he becomes obsessed about whether this army that he is joining is behaving in a civilized fashion a

carolina, and we're south of there. but even though the centre went to our north, we got the brunt of the storm as the eyewall, those real strong bands of thunderstorms with high winds and heavy rain, actually went right through the charleston area, so it has been quite a day. and it's thought that the flooding in florida and other areas could continue for days, doesn't it? we still have some roads in our area that are impassable, here in the charleston area. so, yes, what happened is, since we are on the ocean, we've got the tides coming in and all that water coming in ahead of hurricane ianjust got pushed in and pushed in to our creeks and our harbour and itjust couldn't evacuate, so even still at this hour, there are some roads in charleston that are not passible. we are only about seven feet above sea level, so it doesn't take much for us to flood. right. and moving on from now, how is it going, thought to be weakening? it is weakening. it is now basically almost in north carolina, the centre of circulation. it has

us are residents of south carolina at now in the clear? >> stephanie, you bring up an important point. while the skies have cleared, the threats have not. something officials are really urging residents to keep in mind. thousands, who nearly 60,000 south carolinians in the dark still without power after hurricane-force winds tackled hundreds of trees in south carolina, like the one behind, me bringing down power lines with it. still today, there is a continued risk for more trees to fall because of how saturated these grounds are. more than seven inches of rain pummeled charleston here, within 24 hour period. it is upwards of ten inches of rain, in other parts of south carolina's coastal communities. and so we saw immense flooding as hurricane ian crashed into south carolina's coastline, and some of that water still remains, although a lot of it has receded overnight. so officials are reminding people, it is important, if you see flooded roadways, to avoid them with six inches of staining water, that could stall out a vehicle. and this is
