As FITSNews exclusively reported last week, Patriots for South Carolina – a political action committee whose wealthy donors are supporting Evette’s campaign – ran a thirty-second ad in which South Carolina governor Henry McMaster appeared to endorse Evette’s 2026 bid to succeed him. “Pam is what South Carolina is all about,” the governor continued. Neither president Donald Trump nor governor Henry McMaster has endorsed her. As noted, the GOP primary is the race to watch in South Carolina. Prior to founding FITSNews, he served as press secretary to the governor of South Carolina.
