Advocating for Businesses
The Greenville Chamber actively advocates for policies and supports business leaders and their representatives in forwarding pro-business legislation that will benefit the Upstate.
Every year, we issue ratings for candidates running for office throughout Greenville to help the business community make decisions about which candidate to support. The Chamber does not endorse candidates.
Ratings are based upon a candidate’s written responses to business-related questions followed by in-person interviews conducted by local business leaders. Ratings are tracked using the following scores:
Excellent: 85-100
Well-Qualified: 75-84
Average: 61-74
Not Qualified: 60 or Below
*Incomplete means the candidate turned in a written response and did not interview or missed the deadline to respond.
The primaries for state and county elections take place on June 14th. For more information, contact Jason Zacher, VP of Business Advocacy.
