No Impeachment Resolution Against S.C. Governor Sanford Today
Published: October 27, 2009
COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) - South Carolina lawmakers will not consider
a move to impeach Republican Gov. Mark Sanford anytime soon.
House Speaker Bobby Harrell on Tuesday turned aside an
impeachment resolution brought by another Republican. Harrell said
the measure could not be considered because lawmakers are operating
under a rule that allows them to consider a limited number of items
in their abbreviated session this week.
Harrell said state Rep. Greg Delleney could file the resolution
next month in advance of the regular session’s start in January.
Delleney, a Republican from Chester, says Sanford should lose
his job for skipping the state for five days in June to rendezvous
with his lover.
