Staff reports | Looks like there might be a showdown over how the state might get its next lieutenant governor if the current one, Henry McMaster, becomes governor when Gov. Nikki Haley is confirmed to be United Nations ambassador.
The kerfuffle comes from an effort to get future lieutenant governors to run on the same ticket as gubernatorial candidates, a state version of what happens with presidential candidates. In 2012, 55.5 percent of voters approved a measure to amend the state constitution to do just that.
