WASHINGTON -- Another Democratic presidential candidate has hired a staffer whose sole responsibility will be to harness South Carolina’s influential church voting bloc ahead of the 2020 primary.

Former Vice President Joe Biden’s S.C. campaign has brought on Michael McClain to be its faith outreach director in the critical early primary state.

The campaign made the announcement Thursday along with a slate of 39 new local faith leader endorsements, most of whom McClain helped secure over his first two weeks on the job, the campaign confirmed.
