The bedroom community of Mount Pleasant, the state's fourth-largest municipality with a population of more than 64,000, elects a mayor and town council on Tuesday. The Post and Courier of Charleston reports that of 22 candidates for those positions, there are no incumbents.
Nineteen newcomers are seeking town council seats.
Three men who had served on town council -- Joe Bustos, Gary Santos and Billy Swails -- are all running for mayor.
Mayor Harry Hallman (web | news | bio) , suffering from Alzheimer's disease, stepped down last spring. His replacement, Kruger Smith, did not seek a full term.
