Setzler to Step Up as Aiken County Districts Change
Editorial notes that redistricting reshapes Aiken County representation in state Senate District 26. Sen. Nikki Setzler, a Democrat, gains northern Aiken County and parts of Aiken city, while Sen. Shane Massey loses much of the county. Setzler vows greater involvement, attending delegation meetings, to better represent constituents amid shifts. Greg Ryberg says Setzler’s involvement could boost county clout.
