Three Horry County lawmakers will again be in the handful of Republican state House members who are charged with whipping other party members into line when votes come up.
State Rep. Tracy Edge, R-North Myrtle Beach, was named one of three chief whips. Rep. Nelson Hardwick, R-Surfside Beach, and Rep. Thad Viers, R-Myrtle Beach, were among 16 other whips named Tuesday by House Majority Leader Jim Merrill, R-Daniel Island.
The whips are responsible for lining up votes on critical pieces of legislation, promoting the GOP Caucus agenda, and assisting the party’s leadership, Merrill said.
