Write-in hopefuls get in last-minute campaigning

The two announced write-in candidates for Seat Three, Oconee County Council got in some election eve campaigning last night in Seneca, during a forum sponsored by the League of Women Voters. Just moments before the start, the league issued this statement: “It is the policy of the League NOT to conduct forums with write-in candidates, but this is an exceptional situation, and we decided to invite the two write-in candidates, Mr. E. Riley and Mr. Paul Cain, to participate very briefly in tonight’s candidate forum.” That participation consisted only of opening statements.” Those statements are being carried today on 96.3/WGOG NEWS.
