So, the motion to adjourn debate was tabled.
Rep. SCOTT read the letter from Carl F. McIntosh and withdrew him as a candidate.
Rep. QUINN nominated C. Robert Mosely as follows:
"I can assure you that I am going to keep my remarks under a minute. Mr. President, ladies and gentlemen of the House and Senate...I am rising to nominate Robert Moseley for Seat No. 2 for the Public Service Commission. I do this for many reasons and I think Bob has a unique personal background that would make him a great commissioner. He has done everything from being involved in the military in an active role for seven years. He was a bank examiner for 15 years giving him a strong background in accounting and has been private business for over a decade making a payroll. I think that background will give him the needs of both the consumer and the business that is before the Public Service Commission. He has been involved in every local organization you can imagine to Woodmen of the World to the local Fire Department to Rotary Club to the Area Mental Health Board. But, more importantly, I think Bob Mosely brings something to the Commission that we need and that is someone that is not beholden to any particular interest groups. He is going to be impartial and unbiased and that is a needed person we need at the Commission. I appreciate your time and thank you very much. I urge you to vote for Bob Mosely."
Rep. G. BROWN nominated Charles Dukes Scott as follows:
"Fellow House members, ladies and gentlemen...It is indeed a tremendous pleasure and honor for me to rise today to second the nomination of C. Dukes Scott for the Public Service Commission of South Carolina Seat No. 2. Mr. Scott graduated from the finest colleges of South Carolina, having obtained a B. S. Degree from Clemson University and a Juris Doctorate with Cum Laude Honors from the University of South Carolina. A native of Orangeburg, he received an honorable discharge as Captain in the U. S. Army Reserves. A family man, he and his wife Judy, are active members of the Forest Lake Presbyterian Church in Columbia. With all respect to candidates who have filed for the Public Service Commission during its illustrious history, I must say that without
