County Council Run Off Protest Denied
Mike Holden, candidate for Anderson County Council District 5 run off, made an official protest in the run off held on June27th. Michael Thompson won the run off by only 19 votes. The Anderson County Republican Party had a hearing Thursday night at the Civic Center. The Executive Committee chose to uphold the election results based on the evidence presented. I would like to commend the chairman of the Party, Mr. Rick Adkins. He meticulously studied the law and party rules and applied them as fairly as possible. I was at the hearing Thursday night representing the Hopewell Precinct.
I understand the Mr. Holden will take his protest to the next level, the SC Republican Party Executive Committee on Saturday. Let’s see what happens!

Mike Holden is such a bonehead. He had nothing and looked like he had lost his best friend. His lawyer was even more pathetic. They looked very unprepared.
Mr. Adkins ran the meeting with dignity and when he didn’t know the answer to something he excused himself and left to consult someone or something. I think he did an excellent job and kept things from getting out of hand.
His job was tough, but he handled it with a strong arm. This event shows that the Anderson County Republicans have a little class and are not being overrun by the radio crowd.
I hope Mr. Adkins runs for Chairman again.

Holden was denied a hearing at the SCGOP. Katon Dawson threw it out. I guess that shows the ACRP did the right thing.
