… THIS IS THE WEEK TO REGISTER
South Carolinians looking to vote in the upcoming Republican and Democratic primary elections would be wise to take steps to get registered – or update their voter information in case they’ve moved or changed their name.
How come? Because this Saturday (May 10, 2014) is the registration deadline for citizens wishing to cast ballots in the June 10, 2014 primary elections.
“Having an accurate voter record helps ensure a voter’s eligibility to vote in an election,” S.C. Election Commission (SCEC) executive director Marci Andino said in a statement. “It also reduces the potential for delays in the sign-in process at polling places – and that can have a significant impact on wait time for all voters.”
Andino says voters can get all the information they need at the SCEC’s official website – SCVotes.org.
In fact our founding editor – who recently moved from the corrupt “Mayorhood” of Columbia, S.C. out to the suburbs – is planning on giving the site a test drive.
Of course as we encourage all South Carolinians to get more involved in the process of choosing their leaders (staring with registering to vote/ updating their voter information), we would be remiss not to make mention of the dearth of quality candidates on the ballot in both major parties – starting with Nikki Haley and Vincent Sheheen, the “Republican” and Democratic gubernatorial nominees, respectively.
Seriously … it’s downright embarrassing the sort of people who appear on the ballot in this state.
More to the point, we would be remiss not to remind readers of the lengths to which this state’s corrupt leaders will go in advancing their tax-and-spend ideology. We’re referring, of course, to the infamous 2012 “Richland County Robbery” – in which a local election board flat out stole $1.2 billion from county residents in a rigged election that has yet to be properly investigated.
We’re not saying all of that means you shouldn’t vote … (well, unless you live in Richland County) … we’re simply saying your involvement in the process shouldn’t begin and end at the voting booth.
Oh … one other thing worth noting: While the voter registration deadline for next month’s partisan primary elections is May 10, the deadline for the general election in November is not until October 4.

Don’t vote with your heart…. if you have one.
If your conscience disagrees with the law – don’t follow it.
I vote with my middle finger.
They don’t count informed voter’s votes.
You guys are on a roll, today! Keep it up!
Is it time to mention Benghazi again, yet?
Benghazi!

*checks phone*
Yes.
so you’re a shoe in as Nikki ? SC thanks you for your vote, as I do.

We Ronulans have been saying that since 2008. Glad to see you catch up, Grandmaster. : )
You make Grandmaster sound like Grasshopper
Just a note, the voter registration office I went to recently -does- take your picture and it prints out with your voter registration card, and can be used as your “photo ID” at the poll.
If you go to the voter registration office they will take your picture and do a photo voter ID. If you register online or by mail you get the old standard blue voter registration and have to use another form of ID at the polls.
Thanks, Smirks and Eastern! Good info!
The website works well, I updated my registration from Richland County to the New Address in Kershaw County. It took about 5 minutes and Kershaw County Voter Registration and I had my new card in the mail the next afternoon.
Jeeze, who do I vote for ? Left, Right, answer; ANYBODY but HIKKI HALEY.
I’m with you!!!
Well I will cancel one of your vote and my wife will cancel the other.
good for you. And ?
Didn’t FITS brag that he does not vote???..
Just like a pious, pseudo-government gravy-train rider. He can tell you what to do, but the son-of-a-bi*ch is too lazy, or too stupid, to do it himself…Typical leftist…
But then he wouldn’t get a “I VOTED” sticker! I get a handful, and put one on my forehead, one on my car window, and few on store copies of receipts, and once I was able to stick them on the mirror in a Walmart bathroom spelling “I VOTED”. And again, once (and only once) I patted my girlfriend on her ass and left one on each cheek. I’ll never forget her phone call the next morning! Hey, have some fun with them – if only for a day.
Screw those stickers- whatever happened to the cool swag, like cup coolies, or rulers? One can never have too many of those rulers…want to increase our participation in the political process? Bring back the better swag!
Hey, it works in DC…
Swag?
SHEEET.
TBG wants Bling!!!
TBG wants a gold chain with a ginourmous rhinestone encrusted “I Voted!” medallion that feels like TBG has a midget hanging from his neck.
Bengazzi facts, They were asked if they needed assistance 4 times. They said no. OK, now let’s spend millions on that fact. It’s too plain and simple for me, why not for you ?
Four Americans left, by Hillary and Barack, to be raped, tortured and slaughtered…Because Hillary and Barack did not want to deal w/ the fact the terrorism they claimed dead, may F*#k up Obama’s re-election bid…
And Hillary said: What difference does it make???…..Barack said it was a video…
I don’t care what party you’re in, or what you believe…if you are not repulsed by that, and want the answers as to what happened….you are a Filthy, Low Sorry Piece of $#!* excuse for a human being. You have sold your soul for a gov’t job, a welfare check or paid-for abortions…You should be kicked the F*#k out our country….
Why is that a problem for you ? Look into a trillion dollar war for what ? A republican cause ?
Grand Tangrino How could there still be terrorism, the “mission accomplished” speech is coming up on its tenth year highschool reunion?
Just don’t vote for anybody whose sticker you might have seen sharing a bumper with an “Obama” or “Co-Exist” or “Mean People Suck” sticker. Wait………
I’m sure voting is going to change and fix everything. Hope and change! A thousand points of light! Compassionate conservatism!
lol…have fun sheeple
You must also update your address with DMV before you update with Voter Registration.
That’s assuming the Senate and the House can agree on a bill to make sure that every county has a single office to both register voters and run elections.
