Sen. Tim Scott to Launch Presidential Exploratory Committee for 2024 Run

Senator Tim Scott of South Carolina, the most prominent Black leader in the Republican Party, will start an exploratory committee for a 2024 presidential run on Wednesday. An exploratory committee will allow Mr. Scott to raise money directly for a 2024 campaign and garner more national attention before a formal presidential announcement. He will host a donor retreat in Charleston this weekend, where he is expected to update his top donors on his plans. If and when Mr. Scott officially enters the race, he will be the second South Carolina Republican in the 2024 sweepstakes, following the entry of Nikki Haley, the former governor and former United Nations ambassador.

The move acts as a soft launch for an all-but-certain Scott presidential campaign. Scott's first challenge will be testing if Republican primary voters want the optimistic vision he is selling over the us-versus-them rhetoric coming from repeat favorite Donald Trump.
