Voters in four states head to the polls Tuesday in a series of closely watched primary elections that could shape the battle for control of Congress and several governors' mansions in the 2026 midterms.
One of the highest-profile races is that of South Carolina, where Republicans are competing to replace term-limited Gov. Henry McMaster. The GOP primary has become a referendum on Trump's endorsements and the party's future direction. Among the leading candidates are Lt. Gov. Pamela Evette, who has Trump's endorsement, state Attorney General Alan Wilson, and Rep. Nancy Mace, one of the most recognizable Republican figures in Congress.
