S.C. Democrats To Deliberate Mystery Nominee's Fate
Peter Overby National Public Radio Jun 16 2010Democrats in South Carolina are still wondering just what happened last week when they picked their nominee for U.S. Senate.
The easy winner in the primary was Alvin Greene, a cipher of a candidate who had no visible campaign. The losing candidate is protesting the outcome, and the state Democratic Party will hold a hearing on the matter Thursday.
Since the primary, Greene has done some TV interviews, but he's also hung up on a lot of reporters. He didn't respond Wednesday to e-mail and phone messages from NPR.
He did have a fairly gentle talk a few days ago with conservative radio commentator Mark Levin.
"I'm not focusing on campaigning," he said in the interview, which aired Monday. "I'm just going to stick with, you know, my, the issues that I'm focusing on." He listed jobs, education and justice.
