South Carolina Rep. Nancy Mace considers 2026 gubernatorial run, seeking support from Trump.

South Carolina Rep. Nancy Mace is considering a gubernatorial run in 2026, planning to seek support from former President Donald Trump. Mace, who represents South Carolina's only swing district, aims to spend more time connecting with conservative voters, especially in the Upstate region. She recently introduced a resolution banning transgender women from using women’s bathrooms in the Capitol, targeting conservative voters. Mace expects to decide on her run in the coming weeks.
