(AP) -- Those report cards that South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley promised to use to grade legislators get an incomplete score for now.
Haley isn't ready to release her critique of legislators' work during her first six months in office.
Groups that have rated legislators for years say it is not easy to put together report cards if they're done right.
For example, the South Carolina Business & Industry Political Education Committee has been scoring legislators' work on business-related legislation since 1985. The non-partisan group this week released its 2011 report card. The group said Thursday it spends more than 1,000 hours putting together its research.
Meanwhile, the Conservation Voters of South Carolina says it produces a report card every two years. For the first time, it plans to score the governor.
