Getting political with David McMahan

One of the names bandied about of Oconeeans who plan to file for this June’s Republican primary election in the county is that of a new arrival.  That newcomer was identified by county Republican Chairman McMahan today as newcomer Wallace Sparks.  According to McMahan, Sparks will challenge for the State House #1 seat, which has been held by Walhalla’s Bill Whitmire since 2003.  Democrat and Republican party primary qualifying will run through a two-week period, to get underway on Wednesday next week, March 16.
