  William Smith, County Council Candidate for Dist. 1 Announces October Town Hall Meetings web posted October 1, 2012 EDGEFIELD – County Council Candidate for District 1, William Smith, has set up five 'Town Hall' style meetings before the General Election, similar to the ones he had before the primary. William feels that it is important to invite all of the residents in District 1 and throughout the county, so these citizens have a platform to voice concerns. These meetings are spread throughout the district so that everyone has the opportunity to attend. Mr. Smith has been campaigning throughout the district since he announced in January. Smith states “We have a little over a month left and everything is coming together nicely. We have picked up a lot of support on the McCormick side of Edgefield County, the northside, downtown, and areas surrounding Johnston. Residents throughout the community are adamant for change. They want respect placed back in District 1 and their voice heard so that we can move forward. And they are right, change is desperately needed. Doing the same thing for decades and expecting different results is absurd. Mr. Dorn is set in his ways and his ways are not in the benefit of District 1 or the county. I am ready to bring back the respect to the seat and the voice of the people. If we do not make a change now, we will continue another two years with a lack of representation, continued disrespect toward council and the people, and absolutely nothing getting done. We have been working extremely hard for nine months to spread that message. It is essential that people know if they want change, this is the time to do it. We cannot wait any longer. It is important to remind your neighbors, friends and family to go vote.” What’s left on the campaign trail? Mr. Smith is still hitting areas on the northside as well as in the Johnston area. He has visited several churches and will be attending a few more over the coming weeks. The dates are as follows for Mr. Smith's town hall style meetings: Tuesday, October 16th- Macedonia Community Center 6:30 pm Monday, October 22nd- McKendree Family Life Center on the Northside 7:30 pm Saturday, October 27th- The Discovery Center 10:00 am - Noon Monday, October 29th- Edgefield County Council Chambers 6:30 pm Tuesday, October 30th- Chamber of Commerce in Johnston 6:30 pm Please mark your calendars for these dates to meet Mr. Smith and to express any community needs or concerns. He looks forward to meeting you and representing you as your next District 1 Councilman. Remember: Tuesday, November 6th is the day to “Restore the Voice to District 1”. Vote William P. Smith for County Council, District 1. © Copyright 2012 All material is property of
