South Carolina Bill to Elect Governor and Lieutenant Governor as a Team Makes Headway

Currently South Carolina elects its Lieutenant Governor separately from the gubernatorial election. On March 7, the Senate Judiciary Committee passed HB 4977, which says that they should be elected as a team in November. There would no longer be primaries for Lieutenant Governor. Instead gubernatorial nominees would choose their own running mate after the primary. Convention parties would nominate as they already do under existing law. The bill has already passed the House.
