South Carolina GOP votes to censure love gov Mark Sanford
According to Palmetto Scoop:
After a nearly four-hour teleconference call, the South Carolina Republican Party and Chairman Karen Floyd chose to censure Gov. Mark Sanford for “demonstrating repeated failures to act in accordance with … core [Republican] principles and beliefs” and “breaching the public’s trust and confidence.”
But the party stopped short of calling on Sanford to resign, something the governor said he appreciated.
“The events of the past two weeks have been as divisive as they have been disappointing for Republicans,” Floyd said, referring to the governor’s recent disappearance and revelations of an Argentinian affair. “But today has brought a large measure of resolution to a sad chapter in our State Party’s history.”
The formal reprimand came after four rounds of emotional voting in which members of the SCGOP executive committee made their case for or against Sanford.
In the end, 22 voted to censure Sanford, 10 thought he should resign, and nine supported no action against the governor.
