GOA Endorses John Lastinger for State Representative

John Lastinger is the Gun Owners’ Choice Candidate for House District 88

I am proud to endorse Representative John Lastinger for reelection as State Representative in South Carolina’s 88th House District.

In the upcoming November 3rd general election, gun owners across Lexington County have a clear choice: a proven, principled conservative who doesn’t just pay lip service to the Constitution, but actively defends our God-given right to keep and bear arms.

That candidate is GOA-endorsed Representative John Lastinger.

John is a lifelong resident of Lexington County with deep roots in the community. For nearly five decades, Pastor John has served his neighbors with integrity, faith, and dedication. Married for 50 years, a father, and a grandfather, John understands firsthand what matters most to local families—safe neighborhoods, constitutional liberty, and keeping tyrannical government overreach far away from South Carolina.

Most importantly for gun owners, John Lastinger will not be a squish when it comes to defending your Second Amendment rights.

John earned a perfect 100% score on the Gun Owners of America candidate survey. He prominently places the defense of our Second Amendment freedoms at the forefront of his platform, making it crystal clear that the right of law-abiding citizens to own and carry firearms is not up for negotiation.

In Columbia, Representative Lastinger has shown that he stands firmly with gun owners and will vigorously oppose any and all gun-grabbing schemes.

We need fighters in the State House who will stand with GOA and hold the line for liberty. John Lastinger has proven he is exactly that kind of leader.

For all these reasons and more, Gun Owners of America is proud to endorse Representative John Lastinger for State Representative.

On Tuesday, November 3rd, cast your vote in the general election for GOA-endorsed John Lastinger—and be sure to support his campaign.
