Alvin Greene, the Democratic nominee for United States Senate in South Carolina, is at it again. This time Greene has been kicked out of a restaurant for causing a disturbance during a meeting of the Democratic Party — his own party.
(AP) Longshot U.S. Senate candidate Alvin Greene was kicked out of a South Carolina restaurant after police say a woman accompanying him got into a fight with county Democratic Party members holding a meeting there, police said Tuesday.
Oconee County Democratic Party officials asked Greene, 32, to speak at their monthly meeting Saturday at Jimmy’s Restaurant in Seneca. But that invitation was rescinded after the unemployed military veteran was indicted Aug. 13 on a felony charge of showing pornography to a college student.
On Tuesday, Seneca Police Chief John Covington said that Greene showed up at the meeting anyway and a woman with him got into an argument with people at the restaurant.
Party officials called police, who say the owner of the restaurant kicked out the pair and ended the party’s meeting. No charges were filed, and police say no tickets were issued.
Greene was recently indicted on felony charges relating to obscenity, so this latest development comes as no surprise. Though you can imagine the media treatment if the Republican Party had one of its black candidates hauled out of a restaurant in the south. The outrage would be nuclear.
Greene will face the popular incumbent and conservative stalwart Jim DeMint in November. Polls show DeMint well ahead of his Democratic challenger. Needless to say, this is one seat Republicans won’t have to worry about defending.
