ELECTION INTEGRITY INFO:
Precinct reorganization is a perfect time to remind voters of how important it is to get involved in the election process. If you talk to a person who wants to be more involved and need more information, please send me an email at: scelection2023@gmail.com
Please help recruit and register new voters if you can. Also, be sure to go to SC Votes and check your registration to ensure when you can vote and not have to do a provisional ballot. Most of all, please plan to Vote!
