Letter | Fry is the right person to speak for District 106 in S.C. State House

Fry the right guy for South Strand

This coming Tuesday, South Strand residents have the opportunity to send a high-caliber, model citizen to Columbia.

Russell Fry has been actively involved in our community well before his bid for S.C. House Seat 106. During his involvement with the Horry County Republican Party and Grand Strand Young Republicans, Fry not only showed his ability to grasp the issues in the party platform, but also had a keen understanding of how these issues relate to our community.

His peers respect his unrelenting work ethic and ability to make a decision without being caught up in the emotion of a debate.

In an arena where telling the truth is not the norm and not necessarily politically expedient, I can count on Fry to be honest. He is an Eagle Scout. He has integrity.

The South Strand is the most densely populated region of Horry County. We deserve to be in good hands. Please join me in voting for Russell Fry this Tuesday.
