Observer Election Coverage: City Council Candidate Bryce Nivens

Greg Wilson/Anderson Observer

Moving into election season, the Anderson Observer will feature interviews with candidates in challenged races across Anderson County.

The first elections of the season are the City of Anderson Municipal Elections, where only one seat is contested.

Anderson businessman Bryce Nivens and Anderson attorney Greg Steele are running for Seat 6, which represents an area that stretches from West of Linley Park, through the Pope Drive community, across to Whitehall Avenue. City Council Seat 6 was left open when Rick Laughridge stepped down after 16 years.

Early voting will be available Monday-Friday from 8:30 a.m.-4 p.m. at the Anderson County Board of Registration and Elections, 301 North Main Street, Anderson. Early voting replaces in-person absentee voting. Absentee by-mail voting is also available. Contact 864-260-4035 or visit www.scvotes.gov for more details.

The Observer asked each candidate the same questions. Here is the response from Nivens. Steele’s answers are here.
