Candidates Part I – Statement of Economic Interests (SEI)

Published

August 2, 2023

2024 AVAILABLE OFFICES?:
In 2024, all 124 SC House of Representative seats, all 46 SC State Senate seats … all 7 Congressional seats … generally half of your county council seats & half of your school board seats … and a host of other elected positions will be available. (HERE)
The opportunity for REAL CHANGE is huge .. but you must act NOW!!!

The SC Presidential Preference Primaries in February for both the Republicans (Saturday, Feb. 24, 2024) and Democrats (Saturday, Feb. 2, 2024) will mean a lot of “excitement” in the air … but the real focus for those of us here in South Carolina is the JUNE 11, 2024, partisan primaries.

As we reported yesterday … the Next Step for “real” grassroots SC Patriots is to RUN FOR OFFICE!!! (HERE). If not you, WHO? If not now, WHEN? #RunForOffice!!!

Once you decide to become a candidate and run for office, you must file:

(1) A Statement of Economic Interest (SEI).

(2) Campaign Financial Disclosures. (Initial, quarterly, & pre-election.)

It sounds scary, and you do have to do it right, but it really is not that difficult. Remember, this is the new NFL / fantasy baseball … LEARN IT!!!

Statement of Economic Interest:

The general idea is as stated, to disclose the candidate or elected officials “economic” or financial interest. Sure there are some basic issues of disclosure that this report may bring to light … or more likely the SEI disclosure will PREVENT certain activities by once elected officials that would present blatant conflicts of interest … but by and large our experience (as with the entire SC Ethics Laws) is the SEI is devoid of any relevant data that would protect public interest. Maybe SC Ethics Reform should be on the list of 2024 legislative initiatives? (HERE)

But … as a new candidate … you have to file a SEI … and this will likely be your first compliance filing.

We won’t restate it all here, but see the SC State Election Commission webpage for SEI.

Don’t let the SEI scare you off from running for office. #WeNeedYOU!!!

Veterans Day 2025

Veterans Day (originally known as Armistice Day) is a federal holiday in the United States observed annually on November 11, for honoring military veterans of the United States Armed Forces. It coincides with holidays in several countries, including Armistice Day and Remembrance Day, which also occur on the anniversary of the end of World War I. Major hostilities of World War I were formally ended at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month of 1918 when the Armistice with Germany went into effect. At the urging of major U.S. veteran organizations, Armistice Day was renamed Veterans Day in 1954.

Veterans Day is distinct from Memorial Day, a U.S. public holiday in May: Veterans Day commemorates the service of all U.S. veterans, while the older Memorial Day, which grew out of Civil War commemorations, specifically honors those who have died while in military service. Another military holiday that also occurs in May, Armed Forces Day, honors those currently serving in the U.S. military. Additionally, Women Veterans Day is recognized by a growing number of U.S. states that specifically honor women who have served in the U.S. military.

BONUS CONTENT – POLAND INDEPENDENCE DAY: Independence Day (Polish: Narodowe Święto Niepodległości) is a national day in Poland celebrated on 11 November to commemorate the anniversary of the restoration of Poland’s sovereignty as the Second Polish Republic in 1918 from the German, Austro-Hungarian and Russian Empires. Following the partitions in the late 18th century, Poland ceased to exist for 123 years until the end of World War I, when the destruction of the neighboring powers allowed the country to reemerge. It is a non-working day and a flag flying day in Poland.
