Hi Will,

This is because capital was non-unique at one point.  I just recently  
changed it to be unique, but somehow I missed updating S. Carolina to  
have a unique value.

I've gone ahead and unlinked Charleston, and I'll check the rest of  
the us_states for multiple values linked to the capital property.
