Zoe Warren, his wife Victoria, and his three children live in Lexington, South Carolina and have traveled to Pakistan and the Philippines ministering in evangelistic campaigns as a family. They have also served full time at a local mission “Christ Central Ministries - Columbia,” caring for the poor while training believers to do the works that Jesus commanded all disciples to do.

Zoe is a documentary filmmaker, video producer, and journalist since 2009. He has worked in local and regional news and hosts a weekly show distributed by The New American Magazine addressing issues related to our God-given right to keep and bear arms titled, “2A For Today!”

Zoe is a veteran of the United States Navy.

Zoe has made his documentary filmmaking part of his advocacy for Americans. He is a student of political science and volunteers as a coordinator for the Center for Self Governance in the area of stopping the Political Weaponization of Labels and Government (PWOL-G) and has traveled to the Hill frequently taking victims of the weaponization of government and solutions with action that our Congressman can employ to stop the label lynching and due process violations. He and the PWOL-G team have developed strong relationships with members of the Judiciary, Oversight and Weaponization subcommittees, the senior investigators, and their staff.

Zoe has done subject matter presentations at school boards, analyzed policies, and helped a statewide network of strategists with policy solutions.
  • The mission of the SCGOP is "promote the platform and elect candidates that will support it." I fully believe in the personhood of the preborn child, state sovereignty, lower taxes, our right to keep and bear arms SHALL NOT be infringed- all of it. Our platform is Fundamental. It's unfathomable to me that we have opponents of those fundamental principles. However, it's not our opponents outside the party that we have to worry about, but those inside it who would sell our liberty and barter these principles to advance their own influence in their professional organizations, or whatever they believe is polling well. Virtue requires all of us to do what is right even when it is not polling well. Our fundamental principles are absolutely right.
  • We are paying for our own oppression while many of our legislators in SC are trying to pass Hate Crime legislation, or concentrate power to our own version of Anthony Fauci, or give Billions away to woke corporations while overtaxing and overspending to the tune of 25.5 Billion dollars over the last 10 years in South Carolina alone according to Americans for tax reform. We have been so overtaxed and overspent that they can misplace 1.8 Billion dollars and none of our agencies even know it's missing, or who it belongs to. If I misplace $180 I know it's missing, because we have a zero based budget.
  • Our roads are a disaster, illicit Fentanyl is killing our people, our voter rolls are corrupt, undocumented foreign nationals are puring in, and we still do not have protections in the law to preserve medical freedom. I am asking you for your support. I am asking you for your endorsement. I am not beholden to any of the special interest groups that circle the dome over Columbia. I am the only one in this race with a PROVEN record of commitment to Conservative principles, so the voters in Lexington and Republicans across the state won’t have to worry about what I will do when virtue is required. They can look at the positions that I have held and the stand that I have made and KNOW that I am to principled, Conservative, Republican values.
The most important core responsibility of any elected person is to secure the rights of the people. "... all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men."

The South Carolina Constitution demands certain core functions: Infrastructure, law enforcement, courts, etc. However, we must ensure that economic experiments, waste, fraud, and abuse are not funded in order to accomplish those core functions.
My very first job was working with a roofer for a summer under the hot South Carolina sun. It was a summer job, but I learned the value of hard work and how to overcome the extreme heat and adversity of hauling removing shingles from a roof and carrying shingles up a ladder to be installed.
