AGP Executive Report

Last update: 7 hours ago

Election & Economy: South Carolina voters sent Democrat Annie Andrews to the U.S. Senate, ending a 28-year Republican hold as Democrats took control of Congress. Cost-of-living concerns helped drive the result, setting up new scrutiny of federal policy on spending, trade and business. Technology & Infrastructure: Data center opposition emerged as a national election issue, and the debate continues in South Carolina after Andrews’ win, creating uncertainty for developers and investors. Manufacturing Growth: First Solar opened the first 1.7-gigawatt phase of its South Carolina factory, while a Scout Motors supplier announced nearly 330 jobs in Blythewood—fresh signs of investment in the state’s manufacturing base.
