In our final full episode on the 2023 Myrtle Beach City Council Election special series we take you along on election day with a candidate in the race (who is also the host of our show) In it you will hear him talking to people, checking the poll numbers, (which as a candidate he is allowed to do) and talking with people as he goes from precinct to precinct on Election Day. 

We also take a look at the changing dynamics of our city, Myrtle Beach, as this election moves from an old school type political structure, with lifelong, or 30 year residents serving on council to the first run off in the city's history that will feature two candidates who have lived in the city for less than a decade.  It is the dawn of a new era and we try and take you along for the ride. 

Our host Randal Wallace,  was a candidate in this race, and as he will discuss his long shot bid, with only the materials from his attic, his own two feet, and his desire to continue serve the people he had represented for nearly two decades,  he managed to come within 250 votes of winning a spot in the election runoff against candidates endorsed by the heir to the Budweiser Distribution fortune, who is the  current Mayor of Myrtle Beach, who not only publicly selected and endorsed her candidates, she helped raise and spend nearly a quarter of a million dollars in their efforts.  For Wallace it was a campaign against all odds , that even featured  one final sneak attack by dark money special interests determined to stop the Cinderella campaign of Randal Wallace at the twilight hour, as he fought to return the city to responsible fiscal management, and to listening to the people again.
