Beats Walker's Record
"Honest John" Leads Ticket In
Darlington County When Only
Four Days Over Twenty-one
Again the University of South Carolina
has among its students the world's
youngest legislator. This time it is
James P. Mozingo, III, recently elected
to the legislature from Darlington
County on the first ballot. Two years
ago, a University law student, J. Frost
Walker, was elected from Union County,
at the age of twenty-one years
and eight days, but Mozingo at the
time of his election, last August 28th,
was four days younger.
One of the low-country newspapers
recently suggested that to be elected
to public office in Darlington County
a candidate should surely secure the
support of the Mozingos. However,
this is misleading. It is true that J.
P. Mozingo, "Spot's" father, is the'
oldest county officer in South Carolina.
(He was elected Darlington County
auditor in 189(5 and has served continuously
ever since). Spot's brother,
A. P. Mozingo, has been county treasurer
since 1920, but "Honest John"
was not elected on his family name,
but on his own merit as is testified by
the following excerpts from the Hartsville
Messenger:
In this county, the principal surprise
of the election was the fine race
of J. P. Mozingo for the House, resulting
in Mozingo's leading the ticket
and being elected on the first ballot.
For a young man just out of college
and with no political experience to
match himself against some of the
best men in the county and walk away
with first place is truly remarkable.
Of course, Mozingo had the foresight
to select the right family connections
when lie came into the world and that
helped him a lot, but the thing that
put him across was his own ability.
As a speaker, lie was more than good.
He, no doubt, will be heard from in
the legislative halls, with credit to
Darlington County."
Mozingo had no platform and made
no campaign promises; he merely declared
that lie would do his best to
represent the people. The astounding
thing is that John ran against seven
other candidates, some of them veteran
politicians^ and walked away
with :U87 votes to lead the ticket and
be elected on the first ballot. This is
reputedly the largest vote any Darlington
legislative candidate has ever
received. He also is the first man
under :$5 to represent this county in
many years.
