Depending on your age, you will be familiar with the old routine by Abbott & Costello, "Who's on First?"
I feel like I am on the field right here in Richland County.
Somewhere, somebody knows the answer and is going to lead to the right office.
The Goal? Either get McKie and Holmes off the Richland 2 School Board or get them to take the oath of office and become legitimate members of the board.

Richland School District TWO
Sheriff of Richland County
Solicitor of Richland County
S.C. Attorney General (AG)

S.C. Department of Education
S.C. School Boards Association
SLED
FBI

Richland County Elections Commission
Richland County District 8 Rep. (Manning)
S.C. State Rep. Ivory Thigpen
S.C. State Senator Mia McLeod

(1) When any person shall usurp, intrude into, or unlawfully hold or exercise any public office, civil or military, or any franchise within this State or any office in a corporation, created by the authority of this State;
Surely, I cannot be the only resident in Richland 2 who thinks the School District should follow the law.
Why won't the District and the Board require trustees-elect McKie and Holmes to take the oath of office legally?
