Hartnett tells a South Carolina audience that the party lacks national party credibility while the state remains Democrat dominated. The 16th district senator, recently switching parties, is the sole announced Republican foe for lieutenant governor in 1974. He sees Dorn's gubernatorial bid as opening a path for a GOP win in the third district and hints Marshall Cain as a possible candidate, with Cain noting the seat is under consideration.
