Nikki Issues Statement Regarding Governor Sanford’s Future

2 Comments

“For the past five years I have worked with Mark Sanford trying to restructure our backward system of government and make our state more accountable and taxpayer-friendly. During that time I have also been fortunate to know Jenny, and have developed a tremendous admiration and respect for her. In the context of those two things, there are no words to describe the disappointment I feel over the revelations of the past week.

“The people of South Carolina have heard enough about the governor’s personal life. We do not need to hear any more of that.

He has a responsibility to outline what he wants to accomplish over the next 18 months and how he intends to accomplish it.

“To that end, I have major concerns about the viability of that movement and the direction our government could take under the Lieutenant Governor should Governor Sanford resign. As elected officials our actions must be in the best interests of the state - not in the interests of settling long-held political scores - and it is my sincere belief that South Carolina cannot afford to go back to the good-ole-boy system that so badly serves the taxpayers and undermines our government.”

On the Record Voting

“Right now, on the record voting isn’t required in our state, and that means the public has no way of knowing how a legislator voted on a particular issue. Voting on the record is essential for accountability. I believe these votes belong to you, and you deserve the right to know how your legislators voted. [...]
