Laurens County...
Last summer I entered the race as a candi- K .j
date of the Democratic party for the nomina<
tion as a member of the House of Representa
tives from Laurens County. I received a major
ity af the votes cast in that primary— 3,217 out
of the 6,114. However, according to the rules
of the party, three other men having received
a larger majority and due to the fact that our
county is entitled to only three representatives,
! was eliminated.
Recently one of the representatives from
this county resigned. Realizing that I was the
next choice of the voters last summer in the
Democratic primary, I am therefore entering
the field os a candidate for the House of Rep
resentatives from Laurens County in the Special
General Election to be held Tuesday, June 26,
1945.
Having served os a Representative from
Laurens County during the years 1937-38-39-
40, I feel that I can well represent our County
in the General Assembly for the remaining year
of the unexpired term of the Representative
who has resigned. ^
I sincerely ask that you consider the above
facts.
