One of the candidates for Kershaw County sheriff, Sammie Tucker, was hosting a 'greeting' session outside our local "Dollar General" store at lunch time today. They were giving out free dogs and burgers, so of course I stopped by with part of the clan.
His opponent has held office for 12 years and usually runs unopposed. Don't know much about the incumbant, but did spend 10 minutes or so talking to Mr. Tucker and then 15-20 minutes talking to his campaign manager.
Mr. Tucker believes the flow of drugs into Kershaw County can be stemmed with a little more communication and cooperation with the sheriffs from the next- door counties.
It makes sense to me. I don't know what the incumbant has to say about this, but I will look into it.
Our county is so sparsely populated that the drug traffikers find this a quiet place to do their deals without much interference.
And oh-the campaign manager has read visited Bethune Catholic at least once!
