Nancy Mace Downplays Impact of Trump's Endorsement on Rival
Nancy Mace stated that Donald Trump's endorsement did not provide the expected boost to her rival Pamela Evette in the Republican gubernatorial race in South Carolina. Mace indicated the race could go to a runoff and that she will continue to fight for her candidacy.
U.S. Representative Nancy Mace said that Donald Trump's endorsement did not give her rival Pamela Evette the expected momentum ahead of the Republican gubernatorial primary in South Carolina.
Mace argued that many Republican voters at the grassroots level were not satisfied with this choice and claimed she only saw a limited increase in Evette’s votes. According to her, this endorsement was not strong enough to decisively tip the balance of the race.
Runoff Scenario Gains Attention
Mace mentioned that if no candidate secures a majority in the first round, the race could proceed to a runoff where the dynamics might change. She described the competition as extremely tough and emphasized that she is continuing her campaign.
Last week, Trump announced his support for South Carolina Lieutenant Governor Pamela Evette. Along with Trump's endorsement, the current South Carolina Governor Henry McMaster also backed this choice.
Mace Cited Tensions Over Epstein Files
Mace said she was not surprised that Trump did not support her, linking it to her vote in Congress to release the Jeffrey Epstein files. She explained that she was among those pushing for the publication of these documents.
Referring to her personal experience, Mace stated she was not willing to lose an endorsement as a price for advocating the release of the files. This statement brought the public disagreement between her and Trump back into focus.
Voters to Decide in a Crowded Race
In addition to Evette, South Carolina Attorney General Alan Wilson, Representative Ralph Norman, and businessman Rom Reddy are also competing in the political race. Mace called on voters to support her and said she still has a chance in the outcome of the race.
The primary is seen as an important test of how Republican voters in the state will shape their preferences despite Trump's endorsement.
