J. Yancey McGill (born September 18, 1952) is an American politician who served as the 90th Lieutenant Governor of South Carolina from June 2014 to January 2015.[1]
Political career
McGill was formerly a Democratic member of the South Carolina Senate, representing the 32nd District from 1989 to June 18, 2014.
McGill became Lieutenant Governor after Glenn F. McConnell resigned to become president of The College of Charleston, becoming the first Democrat to hold the office since 1995. McGill chose not to run for election to a full term, in November 2014; Republican Henry McMaster therefore succeeded him as Lieutenant Governor on January 14, 2015, having won the November election.
In January 2015, McGill was appointed to be the State Director of South Carolina's Office on Aging.[2]
