Nancy Mace’s Combative Run for Governor

Wall Street Journal: “Polls show Mace’s sharp-elbowed style appeals to a slice of Palmetto State voters who like to see their representative willing to fight. But in a crowded field of Republican candidates, she has spent much of her campaign enmeshed in personal controversies, from a fight over an airport-security detail to an acrimonious breakup with her ex-fiancé.”

“She has alienated much of the GOP political class in South Carolina, with critics saying Mace is turning friends into foes. Her run will test whether her outsider status will work against her, or boost her with antiestablishment voters in the GOP primary in June.”
