Mark Sanford wins election for South Carolina House seat

[John2]

67. I didn't

give her much of a chance from the start. I would have been very surprised if she had won. This is South Carolina and you have to understand the history. You just as well be in the Deep South once you leave North Carolina and enter South Carolina. Remember, this is the first state that seceded before the Civil War. It is where the Confederacy and secession was born. It is also where the birth of the new State's Rights Movement began ned under Strom Thurmond, who was once a Democrat. South Carolina is one of the few States he carried.

I think there is one Democratic representative in South Carolina and that person is a Blackman. His District is majority Black too. The only way Democrats will change South Carolina,is if New people move to that State. And they are definitely against immigration. That is what's happening to North Carolina and Virginia. They have a large African American population but most whites are Republican. Strom Thurmond died in office. He is a legend in that State.
