SC-GOV: Mace leading South Carolina Republican gubernatorial primary polling [View all]

Rep. Nancy Mace (R-S.C.), who has teased a run for governor in South Carolina, is leading a hypothetical 2026 GOP gubernatorial field in new polling.

The survey from the nonpartisan research organization South Carolina Policy Council found Mace with 16 percent support from Republican-identifying voters — 1 point ahead of state Attorney General Alan Wilson (R), who launched his campaign last month. Lt. Gov. Pamela Evette (R) earned 8 percent support, Rep. Ralph Norman (R-S.C.) snagged 6 percent and state Sen. Josh Kimbrell earned 3 percent.

At the same time, a little more than half of respondents — 52 percent — were still undecided.

“I will be making a decision over the next couple of days about my future,” Mace told Fox News over the weekend. “I believe I may be forced to run for governor because I can’t watch my beautiful red state of South Carolina go woke. It’s gone woke over the last couple of years.”
