Nancy Mace gets trounced in South Carolina gov’s race after Trump snub — makes a surprise endorsement

By Victor Nava, NY Post, June 9, 2026

Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) conceded the South Carolina Republican gubernatorial primary race Tuesday less than two hours after polls closed, as returns showed the firebrand congresswoman trailing Trump-backed Lt. Gov. Pamela Evette by double digits.

“This isn’t the end of the fight, but it is the end of a chapter,” Mace said in her concession speech, during which she endorsed state Attorney General Alan Wilson in a runoff race against Evette.

Mace was garnering only 11.3% of the vote — putting her in fifth place in the GOP field — when she admitted defeat.

Meanwhile, Evette held about 29% of the vote, while Wilson was receiving roughly 26% — both advancing to a runoff election.

“Serving South Carolina has been the greatest honor of my life,” Mace wrote on X, shortly after conceding. “Every vote I cast, every hearing I called, every fight I picked — it was always for you.”

President Trump endorsed Evette in the race to succeed term-limited Gov. Henry McMaster on May 29, in a massive blow to the four other Republicans in the primary field, including Mace.

The competition for the coveted endorsement from the commander-in-chief was fierce and a focal point of the race.

Throughout the primary campaign, Mace and Evette, in particular, attempted to position themselves as the most Trump-aligned candidate in the race.

Both prominently featured Trump on campaign material well before the president made an endorsement in the race.

“It’s good to have President Trump’s back,” Evette said last August, in her first campaign ad of the cycle. “I’ve backed him from Day One.”
