Belinda Timmons
Throughout my career, I have maintained the highest performance standards within a diverse range of law, managerial and administrative functions. I have presided over a wide range of cases, ensuring fair and just outcomes while upholding the highest standards of judicial ethics. I have upheld the laws that the General Assembly passed and now I seek to be a part of the Legislative process.
With decades of governmental experience and serving as Chief Judge, I have a deep understanding of governmental processes and policies. I offer a wealth of expertise in judicial matters, leadership, and public service. I'm dedicated to advocating for education and women's empowerment, with a proven track record of effective governance and community involvement.
My experience showcases my decision-making skills and integrity, which is one reason why I'm seeking a new role as Senator to continue serving the public and driving positive change.
A graduate of the University of South Carolina with a master's degree in social work. During my early college years, I paged for Senator John Charles "Jack" Lindsay, Sr. and soon after began public service in Dillon, S.C., as clerk to County Council. Later moved to Florence, SC with my husband and children. Leaving our familiar surroundings was a significant change but we embraced the challenge.
I had the great opportunity to work at the Florence County Treasurer's Office, where I met wonderful people from all walks of life. Each interaction deepened my sense of purpose and strengthened my commitment to making a positive impact in the community.
Talking with everyday citizens from all walks of life has inspired me to run for state senate so that I can play a role in crafting new legislation that reflects our community's values. I am committed to passing laws that uphold principles of fairness, justice, and opportunity for all residents, regardless of background.
