South Carolina Democrat State Rep. and US Senate candidate Krystle Matthews urging Democrats to run as "sleepers," and run as Republicans.
"We need some secret sleepers," Matthews was heard saying. "We need them to run as the other side, even though they for our side, we need people to run as Republicans in these local elections. This is the only way you’re going to change the dynamics in South Carolina," she continued. Later in the conversation, Matthews was heard encouraging donations to her campaign with funds received through illegal activities, like drug sales or straw donations

And nothing will happen to her, would be racist to do so...
From Krystle Matthews’s mouth to the legislature’s ears

From Krystle Matthews’s mouth to the legislature’s ears (Columbia, S.C.) – In a recent audio recording, Democrat State Representative and candidate for U.S. Senate Krystle Matthews calls for Democrat “secret sleepers” to run as Republicans, encourages Democrats to fund her campaign with “dope money,” and says for Democrats to find people in their families, who are not donating, and put campaign contributions in their names. See below for South Carolina Republican Party Chairman Drew McKissick’s full statement: “From her mouth to the legislature’s ears. Krystle Matthews brazenly calls for Democrats to run as Republicans to ‘flip some s*** from the inside out.’ She knows that Democrats can’t win in South Carolina because of their radical ideas and failed agenda, so her only option is to recruit ‘secret sleepers’ to try and trick voters. We’ve been saying it for years, but her plan is further proof why we need partisan registration and closed primaries in South Carolina. Conservative grassroots activists across the state agree–84% of Republican primary voters voted YES to partisan registration on our primary ballot two weeks ago. We hope the General Assembly is listening. “Further, what does the rest of her Party think about funding campaigns with ‘dope money’ and lying on campaign contribution reports? Is this guidance from DNC Chairman Jaime Harrison, the DSCC, or the House Democrat caucus? “So we sincerely wish Krystle Matthews best wishes in her runoff election tomorrow and her state house race in November! We look forward to beating her in both!”
