South Carolina Primary Preview: Candidates Vie for Governor in Crucial Election Test
South Carolina voters are gearing up to select candidates for governor and other positions in an upcoming state primary on Tuesday. This primary will serve as a crucial test of President Donald Trump's influence over Republican voters as they make their choices for the upcoming election. Seven Republicans and three Democrats are vying to take over from the current Republican Governor, Henry McMaster, who is unable to run for re-election due to term limits. The new governor will have a significant impact on the 2028 presidential race, as South Carolina is expected to host important early presidential primaries.
