NEW POLL: SIGNIFICANT BIPARTISAN SUPPORT STATEWIDE FOR MISSION OF DOGESC
CHARLESTON – Nearly 60 percent of South Carolina voters - including 85 percent of Republicans - spanning across party lines, support the creation of a state Department Of Government Efficiency and would hope such a department would prioritize tax relief, lowering government spending, and the state’s aging infrastructure, according to a new survey released by DOGESC.
DOGESC.com Founder Rom Reddy called the survey results conducted by Co/efficient not surprising, given the frustration many feel as state costs soar without a clear return on that investment.
“It's long past time to reverse the flow of money and power from the citizenry to the state and take back the power, money, and decisions that are rightfully ours - and ours alone - to make,” Reddy said. “This is why I started DOGESC.com. To bring these issues to light, to start a conversation that, according to this survey, people agree is long overdue and that will ultimately translate into real changes in Columbia and throughout the State. And in the coming weeks, we’ll be releasing detailed proposals that will get us back to a State where our rights come from God not Government.”
Conducted by Co/efficient, the survey of 1,136 likely general election voters in South Carolina, was conducted March 5-7, 2025. The margin of error for this survey is +/- 3.14%.
Co/efficient CEO and Pollster Ryan Munce said, “Voters in the Palmetto State are a fan of the President’s Department of Government Efficiency, and in many ways, they’re ready to embrace similar policies in South Carolina, particularly when it comes to establishing a state specific DOGE and putting more money back into the pockets of South Carolina taxpayers.”
Some of the overall highlights of the poll include:
● Thinking specifically about the state of South Carolina, nearly six in ten voters would welcome a South Carolina DOGE, a concept that even draws support from a quarter of Democrats and nearly a third of Independents. Among conservatives, support hits 88%.
● If the state were to establish a Department of Government Efficiency, nearly a majority of South Carolina voters say it should prioritize either taxpayer relief (27%) or Infrastructure (21%). Government spending falls in a close third at 19%.
Added Reddy, “South Carolina is one of the most beautiful states in the nation with wonderful, generous people. We deserve better than to be ranked in the bottom 10 nationally in education, median family income, roads, and other key metrics while having the highest income tax rate of any red state. DOGESC has the potential to free citizens from the control of the Agency State, substantially reduce costs and return the money to us, the citizens. We must have like-minded elected officials to accomplish this and DOGESC will make this happen with the help of the grass roots citizen.”
This is just the latest news from DOGESC, as Reddy recently announced an initial $2.5 million personal investment into DOGE SC, with an aggressive plan to raise at least $2.5 million more in the coming months as it provides the funding, connections to national organizations and support to Legislators to help South Carolina lead the way back to a low-tax, low-regulation, self-governing state with the citizen in charge.
