This election cycle is in the books. Guess what, next year, 2013, there is more. We have some local elections around the county, and PCVotes plans to bring you information on as many candidates as we can. Easley City Council has several seats up for grabs in 2013 including Cave Watson’s seat. We are sure there will be a lot said in that contest. Stay tuned, we will keep you posted as we get information.

On October 23rd, incumbent Sen. Larry Martin and petition candidate Rex Rice will face off at Tri-County Technical College for the Senate District 2 Candidate Debate, presented by PCVotes.
The purpose of this debate is twofold:
1. The PCVotes team is focused on bringing the voting public closer to the process of selecting elected officials, because informed voters make better, more intelligent decisions at the voting booth. 2. When the candidates have the opportunity to communicate their position on issues, they are able to ensure that everyone understands how they will represent them in office.
