Sen. Larry Martin & Rex Rice Debate Tonight

PCVotes presents the next Pickens County Debate. Sen. Larry Martin and petition challenger Rex Rice will face off on October 23rd. at the Easley Campus of Tri county Technical College.

Incumbent Sen. Larry Martin and challenger, petition candidate Rex Rice will face off at Tri County Technical College at the third of the series presented by Pickens County Votes (PCVotes)


The purpose of this debate is twofold.
1. We at PCVotes desire to bring the voting public closer to the process of selecting state Senators and all elected officials. when the voters are fully informed, they make better, more intelligent decisions at the voting booth.
2. When the candidates have the opportunity to inform the public their stance on all the issues, they are able to make sure everyone understands how they will represent them in office.

The candidates running for the District 2 Senate seat are:

Sen. Larry Martin (incumbent)(R)
Rex Rice (Challenger)(Petition Candidate)
