Question: What was the name of the Member of the Republican Party who defeated  Nancy Boyda  in the election
Context: The Republican Moderate Party of Alaska is a political party in Alaska formed by Ray Metcalfe in 1986 as an alternative to what Metcalfe perceived to be a Republican Party dominated by the Religious Right.  Only one candidate has ever won an election, a 2002 race for the state senate, but that candidate (Thomas Wagoner) re-affiliated with the Republican Party the day after the election.  The Republican Moderate Party has extensive litigation-related history, due in no small part to its minor party status.  Previous cases have included ballot access rights and an early challenge to its name by the Republican Party of Alaska.  After a record of success in the 1990s, its support has slowly dwindled, ending with just 0.63% of the 2002 gubernatorial election.  State law requires that 3% of registered voters vote for a party or be registered to it for recognition.  A court challenge initially overturned this law, holding that it was more restrictive than what the state required of independent candidates, but resulted in the original law being upheld by the Alaska Supreme Court on the grounds that a party candidate has more impact than an independent candidate.  The party has since been recognized by the state again.  As of October 2010 there were 2,719 members statewide.

Prior to the 1960s, the Democratic party had control of South Carolina at all levels.  South Carolina was a part of the Solid South and voted entirely Democrat from the late 1870s to the Civil Rights Movement.  Compared to the rest of the South, the Southern Democrats' disenfranchisement of blacks, poor whites, and any other voter who might vote Republican was particularly harsh.  Democrats carried the state in every presidential election from 1880 to 1944 with over 90% of the vote every time, even in 1928, when Republican Herbert Hoover took many formerly solid South states.  Most voters in South Carolina were Yellow dog Democrats, but Governor Strom Thurmond's run for president as a States' Rights Democratic Party in 1948 opened up the possibility of voting for a party other than the national Democratic Party.  The Republican Party did not gain relevance in the state until Strom Thurmond, as a United States Senator, switched parties in 1964 from Democrat to Republican.  From 1964 to present, the Republican Party has gradually gained strength and by the 1990s it became the dominant party of the state.

The Louisiana gubernatorial election of 1892 was held on April 19, 1892.  Like most Southern states between Reconstruction and the civil rights era, Louisiana's Republican Party was virtually nonexistent in terms of electoral support.  In addition, the Republican Party had split into two factions, each supporting a different candidate.  As Louisiana had not yet adopted party primaries, this meant that the Democratic Party convention nomination vote was supposed to be the real contest over who would be governor.  At the convention, pro-lottery former Governor Samuel D. McEnery was nominated.  As a result of the nomination of a pro-lottery candidate, a group of anti-lottery Democrats nominated their own candidate, State Senator Murphy J. Foster.  In addition to the four candidates already mentioned, the increasingly popular Populists nominated R. H. Tannehill and their candidate.  Despite all of this, Senator Foster was elected with 45% of the vote with a comfortable 19% margin between him and McEnery, who placed second.  This election marked the last time until 1979 that the official Democratic Party nominee was defeated.
