On Tuesday, May 30, 20 days from today, Aiken County voters who live in State House District 84 will go to the polls in a special election for a new state representative. To check whether you live in District 84, see the adjacent district map, or visit www.scstatehouse.gov and enter your address at the bottom left. The Democratic nominee is Jennifer Lariscey, who would be a great asset to District 84 in the State House. Here is Jennifer in her own words:
“I have always had a passion for educating our children, and helping others succeed in life. For the last two years, I have focused my time and energy on promoting locally owned businesses throughout District 84 and Aiken County. I believe to help our local community, it takes us having a strong local economy. When you shop at Aiken County small businesses, you are not helping pay for a CEO’s second vacation home, but instead you are helping our family, friends and neighbors pay an electricity bill, provide dance lessons, participate in youth sports, and feed their families.
“I have called District 84 my home for over twenty years, and I am committed to the people of this district; after all, we are family. I sincerely care about what happens in this district because it is where I am raising my four kids, and where I chose to build my business and life. I know the issues people in District 84 face daily, because I face them too.
