Allendale Town Council held special election, two candidates listed

The Town of Allendale conducted a special election for a town council seat on November 18, 2025. Statewide candidate resources maintained by South Carolina Women in Leadership list Portereshice Tibby Brabham and Angela Grant as the two nonpartisan candidates on the ballot for that contest. The roster is intended as a multi partisan listing to help voters identify female candidates across municipal, county and state contests in 2025.

The roster entry serves as a candidate reference and does not publish vote totals or certified results for the Allendale race. For official certification and final vote counts, the South Carolina State Election Commission website scvotes.gov and the Allendale municipal clerk remain the authoritative sources. Residents and local media should consult those offices for formal outcomes and for any notices about certification timelines or recount procedures.

Local impact from the special election depends on which candidate is certified to fill the council seat. Town council decisions shape municipal services, local budgets, zoning and community projects that affect daily life in Allendale. A change in council membership can shift priorities on issues ranging from infrastructure maintenance to economic development and public safety. Voter turnout and engagement in this contest also reflect broader civic participation in Allendale ahead of upcoming municipal planning cycles.

The entry on the statewide roster highlights a broader effort to track and elevate female candidacies across South Carolina. For Allendale residents who follow representation and civic leadership, the presence of two women on the ballot contributes to local conversations about diversity and participation in municipal government. The roster itself is a tool for voters and does not replace the official functions of election administration and certification.

Those seeking clarity on next steps can contact the Allendale municipal clerk for local records and agendas, and the South Carolina State Election Commission for certified results. Information from those offices will determine who will assume or continue council responsibilities and when the newly elected member will be seated. Until certification is complete, official status remains with the election authorities rather than with candidate listings on informational rosters.
