Kershaw County Council District 5 will have a new representative no matter who wins this November’s election. That’s because Councilman Stephen Smoak, 39, who has also served as council’s vice chairman, is not running for reelection. Smoak said he wanted to break the news now so other potential candidates can decide between now and March whether to file for the position.
