Attention: Barbara Satterwhite
Dear Committee Members:
I hereby withdraw as a candidate for Associate Justice of the South Carolina Supreme Court.
Sincerely yours,
Julius H. Baggett
Dear Mr. Chairman:
After much thought and prayer, I am withdrawing from the Supreme Court race. Thanks to many wonderfully committed Legislators, we ran a heck of a campaign. Coming from a virtual unknown in the General Assembly, to being a legitimate contender was an accomplishment I owe to my supporters. I truly appreciate the many friendships made during this process.
I came to see first hand that this election process is difficult for both the
candidates and the Legislators. And, through it all, I came to genuinely
appreciate the kindness and courtesy shown to me by all in the Legislature.
Sincerely,
Charles B. Simmons, Jr.
