The whites were back in charge of South Carolina, in the person of General Wade Hampton III. Hampton's election marked the establishment of a ninety-nine-year hold on the State House by the Democrats. The next Republican governor of South Carolina was James Burrows Edwards in 1975. The normal American two-party system was thrown off balance because the Democratic Party, in those years, was the "white" party in South Carolina, and whites successfully kept blacks away from the ballot boxes through various Jim Crow laws. Hampton and other wealthy Confederate officers, known as the "Bourbons", ruled the state, but the farmers of the Upcountry were in no mood to return to the aristocratic leadership that had led them down the path to destruction.
