PAUL DANS FOR SENATE

ad creative

Ad copy

I am Paul Dans. I'm a Republican and Father of 4 who worked for Dr. Ben Carson during Donald Trump's first term in office. I am going to MAKE MYRTLE BEACH SAFE AGAIN. I will be introducing a new national crime bill the moment I am elected to the U.S.Senate. We are going to make every city in South Carolina a place where families feel safe.
