Lt. Gov. Pamela Evette holds the strongest position among Republican candidates for the June 9 primary, drawing on her current statewide role and recent polling averages that place her slightly ahead of Attorney General Alan Wilson. Wilson benefits from his long tenure in the attorney general’s office and strong fundraising totals shared only with Evette. U.S. Reps. Ralph Norman and Nancy Mace compete for conservative and anti-establishment support, with Norman emphasizing infrastructure priorities and Mace focusing on border security and tax cuts, though both trail in recent surveys. State Sen. Josh Kimbrell remains a distant option with minimal voter recognition. Traders reflect these dynamics through the current consensus pricing, as the primary date approaches and candidates continue statewide forums.
