Everyone knows that I do not endorse locally and stay out of local races. Why? Because local candidates have plenty of opportunity to get their message out, meet with voters, and be seen around town.
I have endorsed statewide and nationally before ( Romney for President , my friend Nikki Haley for Governor , and Rubio for President ) but will always let our community form their own opinions on the men and women right here that should be out hustling for support and spreading the message of why they should earn our vote.
Tonight I did want to be sure that everyone knew important dates relating to the recent vacancy on our School Board.

This is a RICHLAND COUNTY seat up for election so only those in Richland can vote. To check your voter registration, please click here.
Once I hear from the Richland County Elections Office on their staffing and precinct openings, I will certainly pass that information along. It would not surprise me to see precincts voting together at certain locations due to the nature of a special election.
Thank you Nathan for this updated information!
