The South Carolina state Christmas tree is up now in front of the Statehouse, and once again, it appears there are problems with the tree. People walking by the tree on Monday complained that it’s much shorter than previous trees, and it also has big bare spots around the base. But, the volunteers who bought the tree and decorate it say, not to worry. WJBF News Channel 6’s SC Capitol reporter, Robert Kittle tells us what happened…and how it’ll be fixed.

The holiday tree in the Washington state Capitol this year will be joined by a Christian nativity scene and an atheistic billboard.

Thanksgiving may be Thursday, the state of South Carolina is already set for Christmas. The state Christmas tree is in place, and decorated, in front of the Statehouse.
