Evette, backed by Trump, and Wilson, a Trump supporter, head to S.C. governor runoff

President Trump, then former President Donald Trump, gestures to supporters at an election night watch party at the State Fairgrounds on February 24, 2024, in Columbia, S.C. Also pictured is Republican South Carolina Lt. Gov. Pamela Evette, who is running for governor in 2026.

In South Carolina, both Republican candidates for governor are MAGA devotees, but Trump only endorsed Lt. Gov. Pamela Evette, not Attorney General Alan Wilson. The two are headed to a GOP runoff.
