Congresswoman Nancy Mace has officially entered the 2026 Republican gubernatorial race, unveiling a campaign video titled “Huge MAGA Announcement” on her campaign website and publicly declaring her intention to succeed term‑limited governor Henry McMaster.
“Nancy Mace launches her run for Governor of South Carolina!” according to the video posted on her website.
The firebrand congresswoman has already updated her X header to feature a photo with President Trump.
Mace is expected to officially enter the South Carolina governor’s race with a major announcement set for 7:30 a.m. Monday at The Citadel, according to ABC.
In a social media post, Mace said, “Something is broken in South Carolina. They said stay quiet, I spoke up. They said play nice. I fought back. They said sit down, and I stood up. Corruption, chaos, cowardess — I’ve seen it all. Get ready, South Carolina. This isn’t just a campaign, it’s a calling. You and me. God’s not done with South Carolina, and neither am I.”
