Alan Wilson to Launch 2026 SC Governor Campaign

News summary

South Carolina Attorney General Alan Wilson, a four-term Republican, will officially launch his campaign for governor at an event next week, confirming his widely expected bid for the 2026 election. Wilson has closely aligned himself with Donald Trump, supporting him through various legal and political challenges. He is expected to face a competitive Republican primary, with potential rivals including Rep. Nancy Mace and Lt. Gov. Pam Evette, both Trump supporters. The official filing period for the governor's race opens in March 2026, but several Republicans are already positioning themselves for the contest. Trump's endorsement is viewed as a key factor in the primary, given his enduring influence in South Carolina GOP politics. Wilson's announcement is likely to intensify the primary rivalry as candidates seek to appeal to the state's strong Republican base.
