It was that close more than two months before Election Day despite Governor McMaster having higher name recognition. And, the more people learned about the two candidates, the more they preferred James, 51 percent to 46 percent.

Smith/Norrell signs are practically flying out of the door – we can barely keep them stocked. Folks who have never visited the office, many of whom don’t regularly vote for Democrats, are dropping by along with our Party faithful. I’ve been told that some streets are awash with Democratic candidate signs.

  • Janice C. Schach, FASLA, Past President of ASLA
    NOMINATION OF C. THOMAS WYCHE FOR THE 2004 ASLA OLMSTED MEDAL I am pleased to nominate my colleague and friend C. Thomas Wyche for the 2004 ASLA Olmsted Medal -- I can think of no one more qualified than Tommy Wyche to meet the criteria of this award. Tommy’s life work has been devoted to leadership, vision and stewardship. For the past 35 years, he has devoted a significant portion of his personal and professional time to the conservation of approximately 100,000 acres of magnificent wilderness forests in the Blue Ridge Mountains of North and South Carolina. Without the leadership of his conservation efforts, much of this land would today doubtless be gated communities, golf courses and shopping centers. Instead, these lands are home to pristine rivers, lakes and waterfalls, undisturbed hiking trails, and campsites in a lush environment that supports an ecosystem of great richness and diversity. Tommy Wyche is a 78 year old attorney who lives in Greenville, South Carolina. He graduated from Yale University in 1946 with a degree in electrical engineering and earned his law degree from the University of Virginia in 1949. Since that time, he has been in the private practice of law with Wyche, Burgess, Freeman, & Parham in Greenville. His scholastic honors include honorary doctorate degrees from Clemson University, Furman University, and Wofford College; Omicron Delta Kappa; Raven Society; and Member Virginia Law Review. In the early 1970s, Tommy conceived the idea of permanently preserving a large wilderness area spanning the Blue Ridge Mountains of northern Greenville County, South Carolina along its border with North Carolina.

  • New Museum Would Portray Slave Experience
    New museum would portray slave experience E. RICHARD WALTON, Guest Columnist 1:02 a.m. EDT March 21, 2016 Former Charleston Mayor Joe Riley thinks we'd all be better off if we knew more about the roots of slavery beyond the obvious. He has said we'd know about the nation's African Americans — and therefore more about ourselves. Riley and other leaders have marveled how families of the nine people slain last summer at Charleston's "Mother Emanuel" Church were able to "forgive" the 21­year­old gunman so soon after the massacre. Riley said the descendants of slaves forgave "a bigot." The former mayor said he wants to construct an International African American Museum in Charleston in the next few years. Budgeted at $75 million, there's $21 million still to be raised, he said. The museum would be built near the site where Africans originally arrived on slave ships from countries from Africa's western coast. Riley discussed his ideas for the IAAM at a conference sponsored by Furman University's Riley institute. The session, titled "One South Carolina," was held in Hilton Head this month. The institute offers diversity training to better equip managers to supervise in today's workplace. Some of those employees may have special needs, be transgender, women or people of color. Charleston's mayor for 40 years, Riley stepped down in January and is focused on fundraising for IAAM, which will be a kind of Ellis Island of the South. Located in New York City's harbor, Ellis Island welcomed many immigrants coming from Europe to America.
