SC Governor Vetoes $213M In State Budget

South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley has issued dozens of vetoes, blocking state funding for public television, the state Arts Commission and $56 million for schools. The Republican governor announced 35 vetoes yesterday to save $213 million. Haley also vetoed the GOP-majority Legislature's proposal to use state money for the 2012 Republican presidential primary. Legislators need to muster two-thirds votes in the House and Senate to override a governor's vetoes.
