Annie Andrews proposed a two-year moratorium on the development of data centers in SC. This would give our legislators time to study the pros and cons of allowing data centers to be built in our state. This is a mature and wise decision to pump the brakes before we give away our natural resources.

Conversely, Darline Graham wants to go full steam ahead with data centers, without the considering impacts on SC residents. Data centers require huge amounts of water and electricity to operate, and that drain on our resources will negatively impact our lives. Graham is in bed with these corporations, and her acceptance of $1.5 million from them today tells you who she really cares about. Hint: it’s not the people of SC.

Say what you want about the polls. But woah Annie truly does have a chance. Even if you wanna dismiss the polls you can’t dismiss that the atmosphere surrounding this race is different. People are starting to notice nationally.

GO VOTE!!!!

Ps: I was a lifelong republican all my life. I started to use my noggin & voted all blue this election. To all the republicans/independents here on the fence—if I can do it, you can do it.

Not really sure what WIS was going for with this article. They said Brian Myers has sparked “some debate online” and basically showed each candidate for the same amount of time. They did not directly address any of the allegations and just took him at face value when he said he is a Columbia resident. I’ve seen other outlets are reporting his business is facing dozens of liens, he owes thousands to the county and his only response has been to redirect towards his election platform.

South Carolina is not for sale. Darline having the same last name as Lindsey doesn’t make her qualified to represent us. A nepo sibling with no relevant experience is an insult to South Carolina.

edited to add I mistyped it was SCvotes.gov; I also added image I thought I attached earlier*****

checked my voter registration and it showed record not found.. I called the number provided and was told the website has been having “glitches” and I was indeed registered. When I told her I would be sure to check my vote too because I’ve heard the machines have also been “glitching” and switching votes.. she said yes, she had heard that was happening and to verify the print out. Document these things if you see them and tell a friend to tell a friend.

Dear anyone who needs to hear this:

Hate will never make you cool

Hate will never gain friendships

It will not make you successful

Division and keeping others down will never make you strong

If you feel angry and full of hate, there is help. Ask for help. You too deserve to be happy.

Hate will only leave you sad, alone, and afraid.

I love my fellow Americans. I love their differences. I learn so much everyday from listening to those who are different than me. It is what makes us stronger together. I hope more of my fellow Americans can find this hope and love as well.

Sincerely,

Your SC neighbor who cares

I voted early, and got a different I Voted sticker than I was used to. Celebrating the 250th seemed fine, but then I started seeing folks in this reddit posting their blue and white stickers, the kind I'd collected the past few years.

What sticker did all you other early voters receive?

This is a super PAC that only supports candidates who promise to help get money out of politics. They came up with nonpartisan index that grades each candidate based on where they get campaign funds from, how much stocks they own, and their willingness to support legal framework: to end politicians from trading stocks while in office, no corporate PAC Money, ban lobbying for a certain time period for former members, and overturning citizens united.

Highly encouraged you to check it out and share with your friends/ neighbors. This SHOULD be something we all can agree on red, blue, purple— keeping our politicians out of profiting off their positions and stop corporations from buying politicians.

Shocker, Graham isn’t doing well in this category. Andrews is a great candidate, better than NC Candidate Cooper because she is not taking money from corporations. I hope y’all are able to convince people this is the way to go.

Absolutely gorgeous state park, and the hike to Rainbow Falls is challenging yet so rewarding.

Pictures cannot do this place justice, especially during this time of year

Is beautiful, that's all.

Thank you all so much for the positive support after our recent post about building permits! We had quite a few people reach out with questions about construction costs in the Upstate. So we put together a quick guide based on what we're seeing at Heroic Builders:

• Standard construction: $175–$225/sq. ft.
• Semi-custom: $200–$250/sq. ft.
• Custom: $225–$300+/sq. ft.

We appreciate the support from this community! We're just hoping to share some helpful information. I included the link to the article because it goes into more detail if anyone is interested. Otherwise, the core cost range is right here! If this isn't permitted under the subreddit rules, please let us know and we'll gladly remove it.
