Responding to the call by the South Carolina Democratic Party for him to step aside, newly-minted Dem Senate nominee Alvin Greene tells the AP: “The people have spoken. We need to be pro-South Carolina, not anti-Greene.”
Greene spoke to the wire service outside his home in Manning, South Carolina, where he lives with his parents. He also said: “The Democratic Party has chosen their nominee, and we have to stand behind their choice.”
He declined to comment on the revelation that he is facing a felony charge for allegedly showing obscene photos to a university student.
