WASHINGTON, March 31 (UPI) -- A year after his improbable comeback victory to win a special election for South Carolina's 1st Congressional District seat, Rep. Mark Sanford will run unopposed in his bid for reelection this fall.
With the state's March 30 filing deadline past, the Republican, who also served three terms as the representative from South Carolina's 1st District in the 1990s, will face no challenger either in his party or in November's election.
