Allan Quinn did not complete Ballotpedia's 2020 Candidate Connection survey.
2016
Quinn's campaign website highlighted the following issues:[6]
- Excerpt: "Need to bring TRUE Reform to South Carolina Department of Transportation (SCDOT) and State Transportation Infrastructure Bank (STIB). This is the Only way our roads Statewide will be repaired. Currently the Good Old Boy System allows Corruption and Favoritism to Special Interest groups around the State."
- Excerpt: "Bring Good jobs to Pickens County. We have been left out of growing job markets since the Textile Industry moved most operations overseas. All the surrounding counties have gained a lot of jobs while Pickens County only gained Minimum Wage and Service level positions. This I believe is from a lack of Representation for Our county at the State Level for the last 37 years."
- Excerpt: "I will fight for NO infringement of our 2nd Amendment Rights in South Carolina. (Right to Bear Arms). Our current leadership does NOT support this right as it was written by our Forefathers."
