A Horry County judge has recently denied Atlantic Beach town councilwoman Carla Taylor s request to force the town to recognize her as a duly elected official.
Carla Taylor, the Atlantic Beach town councilwoman who got kicked out of her first meeting last week, now awaits a judge s ruling on if she can take her seat.
Atlantic Beach leaders are trying to "subvert democracy" by preventing a new Town Council member from taking her seat, according to a lawsuit filed last week.
Atlantic Beach s November mayoral race between John David and Josephine Isom remains undecided. The town will hold a special election soon to decide the seat.
The two open council seats of Atlantic Beach have been filled, but the new mayor is still to be determined. How and when that race will be decided is still unclear.
