Rivers Godson Wins House Seat in South Carolina District
In a special election held Tuesday in Charleston County, Davis, an attorney from North Charleston, defeated three other candidates including a black rights activist and a Republican rival to claim the seat formerly held by the late Rep L Mestel Rivers. With roughly 190 of 221 precincts reporting, Davis led by a narrow margin, riding rural support and Rivers’ legacy as former chairman of the Armed Services panel. Davis campaigned on keeping military installations open and benefiting from Rivers’ network, while the race tested party dynamics in a historically Democratic district.
