Wilson Clinches South Carolina GOP Governor Runoff
NBC News projected Alan Wilson as the winner of the South Carolina Republican gubernatorial runoff over Pamela Evette, 162,979 votes (67.5%) to 78,486 votes (32.5%), with about 88,000 votes still to be counted. The race featured mixed endorsements from Donald Trump, who backed Evette before the June 9 primary but issued a co-endorsement for Wilson ahead of the runoff, helping frame the contest as a Trump-influenced showdown within the SC GOP.
