“Sen. Tim Scott’s (R-SC) 2024 presidential campaign announced on Monday that the senator had received endorsements from more than 140 former and current South Carolina elected officials,” The Hill reports.
“The endorsements from Scott’s home state are especially noteworthy given South Carolina’s status as an early presidential primary state and as former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley, also a two-term governor from the Palmetto State, vies for GOP support there.”
