South Carolina Gov. Henry McMaster (R) has sparked outrage with his remark that he looks forward to the day Democrats are so rare they have to be hunted with dogs. The Anderson County Democratic Party has started a petition calling for an apology and an investigation, and the South Carolina Democratic Party has issued a statement condemning the comments as "unacceptable" and "dangerous". Hundreds of South Carolina residents have signed the petition, and McMaster has yet to respond.
