Our Meet the Candidate series brings us to Jenny Desch (https://ycdp.us/candidates-sc-senate-house#desch), the Democratic nominee for SC House District 26. That’s greater Fort Mill, or Zip Code 29715.
Jenny is currently an Assistant Solicitor (better known as Prosecutor) working in Columbia. She lives in Fort Mill (long commute!), and worked in the prosecutor’s office in York County for almost 20 years before switching to the Columbia office. She grew up an ‘Air Force brat’ in Germany and the Philippines before returning to the states to go to law school and ending up in South Carolina. And though she’s long been a state employee in the legal office, she’s also had her eye on making the laws she’s been enforcing all these years. 2026 is the year to pull the pin on that ambition.
This is a long, in-depth conversation. You’ll really get to know Jenny, and I think you’ll find she will be an awesome State Representative.

YCDP TV 53: Six Candidate Forum
In this episode we hear from six Democratic candidates for office in 2026:
Sylvia Wright, running for Superintendent of Education
Mallory Dittmer, running for Congress - US House in the South Carolina 5th - that’s the seat that Ralph Norman gave up to run for Governor, so it’s an open seat… no incumbent
Jason Belton, running for Secretary of State
Tiffany Boozer, running for Comptroller General. We did an extended interview (/ycdptv/ycdp-tv-48-candidate-tiffany-boozer-for-comptroller-general) with Tiffany during the Primary
DeShawn Blanding, running for Commissioner of Agriculture. We had a long talk with DeShawn (/ycdptv/ycdp-tv-49-candidate-deshawn-blanding-for-commissioner-of-agriculture) during the Primary as well
Jenny Desch, running for State House in South Carolina District 26. if your Zip Code is 29715, she’s your candidate
Before we hear from the candidates, host/producer Gary Pearce talks about the two Special Election/Primaries (/two-special-primaries) coming up in August and September for some York County voters, and he discusses a vision issue 👁 he's having that's keeping him from attending and recording events and forums. He'll have a partial cornea transplant in early August that will hopefully correct the issue 🤞.
Our thanks to Lacy Layne for providing this video. It was recorded on July 8 at an event called the Fort Mill Forum, but as you can see, five of the six candidates will be on the ballot for all of York County.
