New poll numbers out of Aiken
We just received these poll numbers out of Aiken County. We are surprised that Sen. Ryberg is below 50%. It appears that house seat 81 is wide open and most likely will be heading for a run off. House 83 is in a dead heat.

numbers don’t mean anything, Ryberg will easily pull this one out.

with 41% undecided in the senate race it still could be wide open. if a sitting senator can’t get 50% he may be in trouble

how can that many people be undecided this close to election day? its not that hard of a decision, pick the one you have the most in common with.

What election? There is not much inyterest in the state primaries, only a republican senate seate statewide, and in county races the turnout is going to be in the race that has the most candidates that you want to vote for…. mainly democratic seats in the more rural counties… so the best way to do it would be to put all the candidates on the same ballot and let us vote for 1 in each race… we can vote in any primary now so why would this change be any different… give us all the candidates that we could vote for on 1 ballot… I gurantee it would produce more republican votes in rural counties, maybe dilute the different outcomes but overall it probably would be the same.

Johnny,
I tend to agree with you. He was a “friend of the taxpayer” for his opposition to alternative funding a couple of years ago. This year he voted for the RIDs (Residential Improvement Districts) which reinstitutes alternative funding for not just schools but other municiple buildings etc. GO FIGURE! I never thought Greg would betray conservatives.

Ron,
Thank you for putting those words in my mouth. I could not have said it better myself.
