OKATIE, S.C. — Beaufort County Republicans packed the Okatie Ale House on Friday to boost local and statewide candidates and urge supporters to vote early once centers open Monday, Oct. 19.

Sheriff candidate Doug Seifert, U.S. Senate hopeful Darline Graham and 1st Congressional District candidate Jenny Costa Honeycutt were among those greeting voters. Graham said she wants to keep meeting residents across the state and keep hearing what matters to them after Election Day.

Honeycutt pressed the full Republican ticket and told supporters to make sure they cast ballots. Organizers framed the gathering as a final push before the two-week early-voting window.

County Democrats have scheduled their own voter rally for Oct. 25, while early voting statewide begins Oct. 19.
