As long as voters make such 'Bright decisions,' nothing will change at Statehouse

Opinion in the The Post And Courier

Upstate voters are sending former Sen. Lee Bright back to the General Assembly, and, well, that’ll fix everything.

Except, of course, all those things that South Carolina actually needs to fix.

See, there has been a slew of legislative special elections around the state in recent weeks, with more to come, and the voting has been nothing if not predictable.

In the Midlands, folks chose to replace an admitted pedophile with a conservative pastor … over a retired Army colonel. In addition to Bright, Upstate voters elected a candidate best-known for her crusade to save women’s sports from the allegedly widespread, yet oddly undocumented, problem of transgender people switching sexes to better compete in high school sports.
