Original: How Monae Johnson went from MAGA darling to endorsing a Democrat

South Carolina Secretary of State Monae Johnson, who rose to prominence with backing from Donald Trump's MAGA movement, has publicly endorsed a Democratic candidate, according to Votebeat. The endorsement marks a striking break from the conservative base that helped elect her, and it is drawing attention from election watchers and political observers assessing its impact on upcoming races.
