Hailing from South Carolina's 41st District, State Representative Annie E. McDaniel was inspired to run for office because she wanted to help make change on a larger scale after years of serving on the school board. 

McDaniel would say her biggest accomplishment during her time in office has been securing funding for local nonprofits, schools, and government functions. She would say that Gregrey Ginyard, Sr., the mayor of Jenkinsville who built the town hall and new recreational spaces for local youth, is doing great work in her district. 

If McDaniel could have lunch with any elected official, she would choose Clementa C. Pinckney. One of her hobbies is playing tennis.
