(Columbia-AP) Aug. 30, 2003 - Governor Mark Sanford says a Beaufort lawyer who helped in his gubernatorial campaign last year will be his new senior policy adviser.

Tom Davis replaces former state Representative Chip Campsen of the Isle of Palms in the $80,000-a-year job.

Campsen left last month and has been considering a run for state Senate.

Davis was Sanford's policy adviser during the campaign.

Also, Sanford's representative in Washington will continue to work on federal issues, but will now work in Columbia. Scott English serves as policy adviser and makes $75,000 a year. He previously served as legislative director for Sanford during the governor's three terms in the US House.

Sanford also tapped Dennis Drew as his new education policy adviser. Drew will be paid $1 a year. He replaces former state Representative Rita Allison of Lyman.
