Summary
South Carolina politics is heating up as Attorney General Alan Wilson cruises to victory over Lt. Gov. Pamela Evette, thanks in part to a surprise Trump endorsement—and Evette’s controversial comments about S.C. State students. Wilson now turns his focus to November’s general election against Democrat Jermaine Johnson. Meanwhile, tight races unfold across the state: Nancy Lacore leads in the 1st District, while Jenny Honeycutt and Mark Smith battle it out in the GOP primary. David Stumbo dominates the AG race, Cody Simpson sweeps the Agriculture contest, and in the 2nd District, Zyon Khalifa’s narrow race against David Robinson II could unseat Rep. Joe Wilson—Alan Wilson’s own father. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
