Medical marijuana could've saved my father in 2009. Legalize it recreationally, too and the taxes alone would fully fund public schools and another teacher pay raise!!
Joe is saying those things but dems are NOT going to let him do those things. We need to secure house and senate so we must not let someone's flowery speech make us fall for them
Keep in mind that votes follow party lines 95% of the time. If you are ok with what is going on then nothing lost. If you are concerned about whats happening in states like Ilinois, California, and new york give it some thought.
Governor please stop using Republican talking points. This is getting old and tired. I'm tired. I'm for diversity in all aspects. I don't care if you are a Dem or a Repub...As long as we agree. But we can't agree if you are not saying anything new.
Hey all, I’m not from SC but From an outside view, all I see is a young representative who is in touch with what his people want, and an old guy who wants to force you into his personal beliefs (which he is entitled to have, but YOU should be FREE to live your own life, and your own personal American Dream). GO JOE GO 🇺🇸💙
It's embarrassing McMaster represents the fine people of South Carolina. We deserve someone who serves the people instead of his party and his religion.
McMaster while campaigning lied directly to me about legalization of cannabis. I can never vote for him for that reason as I know too many people suffering who would be helped by ending prohibition. I know our state usually votes red but we need to support Joe Cunningham this time around.
Look to the states that have it legal. Alot of bad legislation comes with it. I would love to be able to smoke... but not want it if it comes with bad legislation.

Pre Ro is not the discussion McMaster. The conversation is removing the ability of women to choose. That choice they took away from women was not up to 6 months. Speak on the actual facts.
I was born and raised in SC. At 67 what I see that ruined our state is people moving here from other states and bringing their policies here that ruined the state they came from.

@@MrStuVW top 4 voter concerns for SC going into the midterms were: Education, Taxes, Crime and Inflation. Not Marijuana, climate change, sports betting or abortion.
@@shannonfitzgerald6180 huh that’s weird because I definitely heard every single one of those points addressed in the first half of the debate. Maybe someone needs their ears cleaned?
McMaster brought up background checks being done quickly thanks to technology. The problem is that technology provided to the group within the FBI that does the background checks is pre-2000 tech...
@@RonDeSantis2028 My point is that it feels like a half-story--an almost lie of omission. McMaster is correct that the background checks should be done post-haste; however, it's not the reality of the situation and I would bet he knows this. The entire point of underfunding the technological assets of the group in charge of background checks is to run around the ends of the law. While the limitation of the law is well-intended and correct in my view--erring on the side of otherwise lawful citizens exercising their second amendment right IS the better play--it perhaps provides far too much leniency. If the law exists in the first place, then the question of whether or not it achieves its intended goal is, by default, valid and relevant. Otherwise, argue against the existence of the law and don't use it as some half-hearted attempt to conveniently shield oneself from scrutiny. Like it or not, the issue of gun control is on the ballot and will continue to be.
Good ole governor McMaster up there sounding like the physical embodiment of plantation owner lol, how about teach our kids the actual science that marijuana is in no way shape or form or anywhere close to the drugs it is classified with.
He should have loved the state enough to make it worthy to unite with at least the rest of the country and pull us off of third world status. Like fix the roads, give us we expanded Medicaid, care more for our children and scratchy I'm not making this up, we live here.
He loves the wealthy white people of this state. The prejudice is ooozzzing from him at this point. His wife's name is Peggy for dang sakes as he'd say.

I can at least agree with 15-20% of what Cunningham said, but my biggest issue is that everything out of his mouth comes across as pre-rehearsed and disgenuine. He sort of comes off as the Beto O’Rourke of South Carolina.
@@Drizzle8481 that’s not what I’m referring to; I’m not knocking him for speaking cleanly and eloquently. I’m saying that it feels like we’re listening to a lawyer rather than someone being direct and honest. McMaster comes off as much more genuine.
McMaster is practiced at sounding genuinely uninformed and dumb, so that he can play you for billions of dollars in kickbacks to his friends and all he has to say is aw sucks I didn't know and you'll believe him.
Now we have the opportunity to move our state Forward with compassion for us all and this is so very important for us and our children's future generations. I have lived in 5 different states in this incredible wonderful country but when I moved here the first thing I realized were the roads I was driving on and how dangerous and worn out and not maintained to the point of not even being able to see the painted lines, because they weren't there, plus the truck traffic and their weight has created a stream of standing water that absolutely makes cars hydroplane the entire length of the roads. Third world is what I imagined for the other states Never had that issue, most areas in those other states has truck traffic going around the towns and communities. Another issue with these trucks driving thru towns I realized why I have seen so many people on oxygen! Now schools are So important in teaching Children the things they need to know to be true productive Americans and good for all life here and the world, to know how to read and write because I see Children in our county that can't read or write in elementary school and heartening to me knowing the importance of a good education. Another issue is hospitals and Medicaid in this state and the absence of adequate hospitals and the seemingly disregard for the health and well being of every citizen in this state, I'm sure you'll agree everyone knows someone hurting without the ability to go to a doctor for help, tell me how important it is to have good health to be that exceptional producer in businesses...! There is a issue with super sites in our state that nothing is being done to clean them up and the federal government has the money to give us but McMaster, and I've seen him do this, just gives the money back like he just doesn't care for our health or well being. I can go on but I'm just going to say I am voting blue for the change this state desperately needs to get us up to the present and leave this third world status. I love every one of you and yours to care more for this fine state to move us all forward. Thank y'All for caring a little more than what we've seen for the last decade. Please Vote Blue this time, Mr. Cunningham is young and a caring parent whose time is Now. 💙
Ma’am… you are going to destroy the state. This is no longer Rupublican vs democrat. This is Christ vs Antichrist. Our children won’t thank you for making this state just like all the others that people are fleeing.
So why would you vote for someone leaves something to be desired?? That is like marrying someone you kind of like, but hoping that they will become the person you want.
@@carlanorton911I like his agenda more than McMaster’s, and that’s pretty much all that matters in a general election. I don’t know how you figure that voting for somebody is like marrying them
And people don't see this. People vote along party lines 95% of the time. "bring in the new era". The new era is exactly what people are rejecting. Men arent women, we don't want social credit score system.
@@chrisedwards7319 Yes I do! Maybe it's not ideal from you. But people are fleeing in groves from blue states and happy to come to open states like South Carolina. Lived here for 14 months. Although I go to Charlotte NC alot, It is also run bad. So grateful to have SC.
It can't be entirely stopped because it is a natural process but it can be slowed down. The rate at which global warming and climate change are happening is unnatural
Not after cutting down the 90% of the world's forests. Nobody is talking about slowing growth and planting trees anymore. That's what's causing global warming and increased runoff during storms and flooding.
We need a Lowcountry politician like Joe in the governor’s mansion. The upstate hates us for no reason, and maybe Joe can teach the pols in Columbia some manners
After watching this debate live I voted for Joe the next day as this conferderate relic needs to go like all the conferderate monuments. PGA & all corporations must boycott SC until rights of women, LGBTQ and all creeds are protected in SC.
Has he made it to the 9th wonder of the world yet? He's failed three times now, he should focus on badgering the county sheriff for holding him accountable for brandishing and menacing his neighbors.
Isnt that interesting? I find people in the comments who "live here" hate it. But I came from Chicago and know that people in 2021 were coming here in grovesss. That's what all the leasing agents were telling me. Perspective is everything. We don't want the wokeness.
Im down for legalizing weed(not for in public use) and gambling but not for someone who wants to put the deaths of covid(inflated deaths..ask a nurse in a hospital in SC). Cunningham also doesnt seem like a fighter at all. Just wish republicans had a younger canidate. Def need someone in the middle of these two, most people arent left or right.

Joe’s running his entire campaign based on emotions. Every part of his campaign triggers someone’s emotions. Be careful when making emotional decisions, people.
That is exactly right. I hope people don't vote base on how they feel, but use common sense to elect someone that put decent intelligent policies in place.
@@carlanorton911 We’re voting for Joe because he’s qualified and we like his ideas. He was able to get 2 bills passed into law while he served in Congress signed by Trump and he closed the Charleston gun loophole. He’s an effective leader.
I am so sick of the abortion non-sense....Why should abortion even be a problem...If you have unprotected sex, you will get pregnant...all you have to do is to wait when you are ready to have baby and go have sex...this is very simple thing to do...All this is BS
Joe just keeps repeating the fancy Democrat catch phrases, while McMaster keeps citing instances where he’s taken action towards making SC a better place. I think it’s pretty obvious what the right choice is for SC. Cunningham isn’t it.
Joe wants to make South Carolina into California. There’s a reason people are flocking to sc, sc is the last place respect, morals and family values are represented. Gov McMaster please Keep South Carolina, South Carolina! Lastly, extreme leftist- don’t forget why you came to SC!
Exactly why I moved here!!!!! I'll tell ya straight up: we just moved here from Cali and we are probably more red blooded conservative than a sizeable portion of the conservatives here. We fled the lunacy in Cali but we put up with the leftoids for far too long
@@shandtelheyward8784 What part do you live in? What should Mcmaster approve? Weed, rodes , and gambling isn't very game changing. Abortion controversial but hes for people and not establishment. And was willing to fight biden on lockdowns and forced jabs which I appreciate.

Pre Ro is not the discussion McMaster. The conversation is removing the ability of women to choose. That choice they took away from women was not up to 6 months. Speak on the actual facts.
I was born and raised in SC. At 67 what I see that ruined our state is people moving here from other states and bringing their policies here that ruined the state they came from.

Why is it that the majority of questions from the moderators seems to be Joe's talking points for his campaign as opposed to what is actually a priority for the voters
Because Joe's talking points are what us south Carolinians want passed that's probably why... And the fellow from post and courier knows should be.
@@MrStuVW top 4 voter concerns for SC going into the midterms were: Education, Taxes, Crime and Inflation. Not Marijuana, climate change, sports betting or abortion.
@@shannonfitzgerald6180 huh that’s weird because I definitely heard every single one of those points addressed in the first half of the debate. Maybe someone needs their ears cleaned?
McMaster brought up background checks being done quickly thanks to technology. The problem is that technology provided to the group within the FBI that does the background checks is pre-2000 tech...
Your point?
@@RonDeSantis2028 My point is that it feels like a half-story--an almost lie of omission. McMaster is correct that the background checks should be done post-haste; however, it's not the reality of the situation and I would bet he knows this. The entire point of underfunding the technological assets of the group in charge of background checks is to run around the ends of the law. While the limitation of the law is well-intended and correct in my view--erring on the side of otherwise lawful citizens exercising their second amendment right IS the better play--it perhaps provides far too much leniency. If the law exists in the first place, then the question of whether or not it achieves its intended goal is, by default, valid and relevant. Otherwise, argue against the existence of the law and don't use it as some half-hearted attempt to conveniently shield oneself from scrutiny. Like it or not, the issue of gun control is on the ballot and will continue to be.

Good ole governor McMaster up there sounding like the physical embodiment of plantation owner lol, how about teach our kids the actual science that marijuana is in no way shape or form or anywhere close to the drugs it is classified with.
I love Governor McMaster! Very Good man who loves the people of this state
He should have loved the state enough to make it worthy to unite with at least the rest of the country and pull us off of third world status. Like fix the roads, give us we expanded Medicaid, care more for our children and scratchy I'm not making this up, we live here.

Joe has my vote. McMaster is telling lies. He already said before this how he feels about much of what was asked .
How dare you say that about ole Hanky Mack.
What is mcmaster lying about?
It annoys me how Cunningham takes a 2-3 second break after every word he says.
Soy-roid side effects
I can at least agree with 15-20% of what Cunningham said, but my biggest issue is that everything out of his mouth comes across as pre-rehearsed and disgenuine. He sort of comes off as the Beto O’Rourke of South Carolina.
How dare he be so informed and prepared....
@@Drizzle8481 that’s not what I’m referring to; I’m not knocking him for speaking cleanly and eloquently. I’m saying that it feels like we’re listening to a lawyer rather than someone being direct and honest. McMaster comes off as much more genuine.
"Think about you feel" thats how you paint a picture but biden trys to do the same thing and they do it so poorly.
You’re picking up on it because it’s obvious to any discerning person
McMaster is practiced at sounding genuinely uninformed and dumb, so that he can play you for billions of dollars in kickbacks to his friends and all he has to say is aw sucks I didn't know and you'll believe him.
Joe should run against Lindsey Graham in 2026.
I’m voting Joe
Now we have the opportunity to move our state Forward with compassion for us all and this is so very important for us and our children's future generations. I have lived in 5 different states in this incredible wonderful country but when I moved here the first thing I realized were the roads I was driving on and how dangerous and worn out and not maintained to the point of not even being able to see the painted lines, because they weren't there, plus the truck traffic and their weight has created a stream of standing water that absolutely makes cars hydroplane the entire length of the roads. Third world is what I imagined for the other states Never had that issue, most areas in those other states has truck traffic going around the towns and communities. Another issue with these trucks driving thru towns I realized why I have seen so many people on oxygen! Now schools are So important in teaching Children the things they need to know to be true productive Americans and good for all life here and the world, to know how to read and write because I see Children in our county that can't read or write in elementary school and heartening to me knowing the importance of a good education. Another issue is hospitals and Medicaid in this state and the absence of adequate hospitals and the seemingly disregard for the health and well being of every citizen in this state, I'm sure you'll agree everyone knows someone hurting without the ability to go to a doctor for help, tell me how important it is to have good health to be that exceptional producer in businesses...! There is a issue with super sites in our state that nothing is being done to clean them up and the federal government has the money to give us but McMaster, and I've seen him do this, just gives the money back like he just doesn't care for our health or well being. I can go on but I'm just going to say I am voting blue for the change this state desperately needs to get us up to the present and leave this third world status. I love every one of you and yours to care more for this fine state to move us all forward. Thank y'All for caring a little more than what we've seen for the last decade. Please Vote Blue this time, Mr. Cunningham is young and a caring parent whose time is Now. 💙

That’s where his choice of Tally comes into play. I think she’ll keep him grounded.

A vote for Joe is a vote for all the 'woke' nonsense we're seeing at the Federal level.
And people don't see this. People vote along party lines 95% of the time. "bring in the new era". The new era is exactly what people are rejecting. Men arent women, we don't want social credit score system.
Truth!!
McMaster is a career politician but he’s actually doing a great job. One of the very few. Whereas other states are disasters
Do you even live in this state?!
In what way? We’re in the top 10 states in the country for most violent crime and most poverty.

It can't be entirely stopped because it is a natural process but it can be slowed down. The rate at which global warming and climate change are happening is unnatural
Not after cutting down the 90% of the world's forests. Nobody is talking about slowing growth and planting trees anymore. That's what's causing global warming and increased runoff during storms and flooding.

Too bad they wouldn't allow the third candidate in on the debate. I think SC ETV messed up there.

I'll tell ya straight up: we just moved here from Cali and we are probably more red blooded conservative than a sizeable portion of the conservatives here.
