I want to know the answer to the following question:
What former appropriations chairman was nominated for minority leader in 1876,77,79?
All the background I'm provided with is that "Further, when Republicans were in the minority, the party nominated for Speaker a series of prominent lawmakers, including ex-Speaker James Blaine of Maine in 1875, former Appropriations Chairman James A. Garfield of Ohio, in 1876, 1877, and 1879, and ex-Speaker Keifer in 1883.". Is that enough to answer the question?
Answer: yes
