Description | The South Carolina Democratic Party is insisting Wednesday that the votes cast for former 7th Congressional District candidate Ted Vick should be counted, and a run-off should be held between Gloria Bromell Tinubu and Preston Brittain.
On Tuesday evening, initial results pinned front runners Gloria Bromell Tinubu and Preston Brittain in a run-off election to be held on June 26, but after the South Carolina Election Commission discounted votes cast for former candidate Ted Vick, Tinubu was declared the winner with 52 percent of the vote.
Amanda Loveday, spokeswoman for the South Carolina Democratic Party, tells WMBF News that their attorneys are reaching out to the South Carolina Election Commission to find out why the votes for Ted Vick will not be counted, and what the next appropriate step should be. |
