Hillary Clinton to visit Democratic event in Columbia

By The Associated Press

Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton’s first campaign stop in South Carolina will be a speech to Democratic women who say they are trying to make South Carolina better.

Clinton’s campaign says she will speak Wednesday afternoon at Marriott hotel in downtown Columbia to the South Carolina House Democratic Women’s Caucus and the South Carolina Democratic Women’s Council.

She will be at the Statehouse earlier in the day to speak to the Democratic caucuses in the House and Senate.

The gathering at the hotel is called the Third Annual 2015 Day in Blue. The event helps women become better citizen advocates and leaders.

Clinton has already opened phone banks in South Carolina and her campaign has held neighborhood parties across the state.
