SC Election Commission fires executive director
COLUMBIA — The governing board of South Carolina’s elections agency voted Wednesday to remove its executive director.
In a 3-2 split vote, the commission fired Howard Knapp out of a desire for new leadership, according to a statement by Chairman Dennis Shedd.
Shedd also said the decision was “unrelated to the conduct of any election in South Carolina.”
“The Commission’s leadership and staff remain dedicated to ensuring South Carolina’s elections are accurate, secure, and accessible,” Shedd said.
