Dorchester County Soil and Water District Commission {_getChooseLabel(this.selections.length)}

Federal law created conservation districts to provide grass roots leadership for developing and implementing conservation activities. In South Carolina, district boundaries are the same as county boundaries. There is a conservation district in each county. Conservation districts are subdivisions of state government. The Board of Commissioners is composed of five members. They determine the needs and set the priorities for the conservation work in the district. Three commissioners are elected in nonpartisan general elections, and two commissioners are appointed by the South Carolina Department of Natural Resources. Commissioners serve four-year terms.Dorchester Soil and Water District Commission - https://www.dnr.sc.gov/conservation/districtsdnr/dorchester.htmlVoting Information:Election Day: November 3, 2026, 7:00 a.m.–7:00 p.m.Early Voting: October 19–31, 2026, 8:30 a.m.–6:00 p.m. (Closed Sundays)Voting Locations & Absentee Voting: https://scvotes.org/NOTEThis candidate’s responses were not available before our publication deadline.
