Republican Ralph Norman defeated Democrat Archie Parnell and three third-party candidates on June 20, 2017. The election replaced Mick Mulvaney (R), who was confirmed as director of the U.S. Office of Management and Budget.[1] Compared to the tens of millions spent in Georgia's 6th Congressional District special election, which was held on the same day, fundraising and campaigning were more typical in South Carolina's 5th District. Norman raised $1.25 million between January and May, nearly double Parnell's $763,000 in contributions.[2]

Ballotpedia compiled the following resources to help voters better understand the policy positions of the candidates prior to the Republican primary runoff election on May 16, 2017 and the general election on June 20, 2017, the same day as a special election runoff to fill the vacancy left by Health and Human Services Secretary Tom Price representing Georgia's 6th Congressional District:


Primary elections were held on May 2, 2017, for the Democratic and Republican candidates. Archie Parnell won the Democratic primary, while Ralph Norman and Tommy Pope advanced to the Republican primary runoff held on May 16, 2017.[3][4][5]

Unofficial results from May 17 showed that Norman defeated Pope by 203 votes, 50.3 percent to 49.7 percent, in the runoff to win the Republican Party's nomination.[6] Following the certification of the election results by all relevant county election boards on May 18, the results automatically triggered a recount by the state of South Carolina. The recount took place on May 19, with official results showing that former Rep. Ralph Norman defeated Rep. Tommy Pope by a margin of 221 votes.[7][8][9]

South Carolina's 5th Congressional District has become a more solid Republican district in recent elections. Mick Mulvaney (R) originally won election to the district in 2010, defeating then-incumbent John Spratt (D) by 10.4 percent. Mulvaney then won re-election in 2012, 2014, and 2016 by margins of 11.1 percent, 21.3 percent, and 20.5 percent, respectively. The presidential vote in the district has followed the same trend in the past three presidential elections. President Donald Trump (R) won the district by 18.5 percent in 2016. Mitt Romney (R) won the district by 11.5 points in 2012, and John McCain (R) won the district by 11.2 percent in 2008.[10] Filing closed in the race on March 13, 2017. Fifteen candidates filed in the race: three Democrats, seven Republicans, and five third-party candidates.

Endorsements

  • U.S. Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-S.C.) - "Fifteen years ago I was a brand new prosecutor in the Upstate of South Carolina trying to work with law enforcement, help victims get justice and preserve public safety. But I needed help. Lots of it. And another prosecutor from the Upstate of South Carolina—named Tommy Pope—gave and lent me counsel, advice, support, and the full weight of his own experience in law enforcement and prosecution. I need his help again, this time in the U.S. House of Representatives."[11]
  • State House Speaker Jay Lucas - "Tommy Pope is a proven conservative and the right choice for Congress. His pro-business and fiscally responsible record in the South Carolina House of Representatives is what Washington needs to practice to put America back on the right track."[12]
  • State Agriculture Commissioner Hugh Weathers - "The farmers that I’ve talked to in the 5th District are supporting Tommy because they recognize what he did for them in Columbia. When the flood hit two years ago, we really needed help and it was not coming from anywhere else. But Tommy stood up and showed leadership on behalf of all farmers."[12]

The following issues are listed on Pope's campaign website. For a full list of campaign themes, click here.

“
  • Economy and Jobs: Government doesn’t create jobs. Americans do. We need to get the government out of the way so businesses can thrive and grow. As the owner of a small business in the 5th district, Tommy Pope knows what it means to sign both sides of a paycheck, and he’ll take that knowledge with him to Washington.
  • Security: As a former police officer and prosecutor, Tommy Pope knows firsthand what evil looks like, and he knows how important it is to secure our communities.
  • The Constitution: Tommy Pope has sworn an oath to defend the Constitution, and he’ll do so again in Congress. It’s an oath Tommy takes seriously. He believes that the framers of the Constitution specifically intended for the power to be with the people. That’s why he’s a strong supporter of our 2nd amendment right to keep and bear arms.
  • Values: With a father in law enforcement and a mother who worked as a teacher, Tommy grew up in a Christian household that valued service to others. Tommy has honored those values through a lifetime of public service. He and his family are devoted followers of Christ. He is active in his church and his community. He is a man of integrity and strives to reflect his Christian beliefs in his actions, not merely in his words.

Scorecards

See also: State legislative scorecards and State legislative scorecards in South Carolina

A scorecard evaluates a legislator’s voting record. Its purpose is to inform voters about the legislator’s political positions. Because scorecards have varying purposes and methodologies, each report should be considered on its own merits. For example, an advocacy group’s scorecard may assess a legislator’s voting record on one issue while a state newspaper’s scorecard may evaluate the voting record in its entirety.

Ballotpedia is in the process of developing an encyclopedic list of published scorecards. Some states have a limited number of available scorecards or scorecards produced only by select groups. It is Ballotpedia’s goal to incorporate all available scorecards regardless of ideology or number.

The Palmetto Liberty PAC Scorecard

See also: Palmetto Liberty Political Action Committee's Legislative Scorecard (2012)

The Palmetto Liberty Political Action Committee, a conservative, pro-limited government think tank in South Carolina, releases its scorecard for South Carolina representatives and senators once a year. The scorecard gives each legislator a score based on how he or she voted in the two-year legislative term prior to the election on specific issues that the Palametto Liberty PAC thinks are anti-limited government. "Most of the votes shown on the score card are votes that we lost. Now we can identify the Legislators that caused us to lose these votes. These Legislators are the ones who need to be replaced if we are to achieve the vision of having the most free state in the nation."[41]

2012

Tommy Pope received a score of 20% in the 2012 scorecard, ranking 70th out of all 124 South Carolina House of Representatives members.[42] His score was followed by representatives Ronnie Sabb (20%), James E. Smith, Jr. (20%), and Lawrence Kit Spires (20%).[43]
