COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) -- South Carolina House Republicans seem to be mending fences with Republican gubernatorial nominee Nikki Haley.

Haley is a state representative who has been at odds with House leadership for the past couple of years.

She said Friday she has been meeting with Republican legislators to make sure they know what to expect if she wins the election in November against Democratic state Sen. Vincent Sheheen.

Haley says she will keep praising legislators she thinks are going the right thing for South Carolina and publicly criticize those that don't.

State Rep. Chip Limehouse of Charleston says Republican lawmakers need to support their party's nominee.
