Representative Nancy Mace has been defeated in the Republican primary for South Carolina governor. The primary election, which will determine the GOP nominee for the 2026 gubernatorial race, saw Mace fail to secure enough votes to advance.
Following Mace's loss, Pamela Evette and Alan Wilson are now set to compete in a runoff election. Evette received the endorsement of President Donald Trump, while Wilson is also noted as a supporter of President Trump.
The outcome means the Republican nomination will be decided between the two candidates who have ties to President Trump. This is a developing story and will be updated as details emerge.
