Live results: Evette, Wilson duke it out in South Carolina GOP gubernatorial runoff

Lt. Gov. Pamela Evette and Attorney General Alan Wilson are duking it out Tuesday in the Republican runoff to succeed South Carolina Gov. Henry McMaster (R).

Wilson secured a last minute endorsement from the president, who previously supported Evette ahead of the state’s June 9 primary. Evette is backed by McMaster.

“I can’t hurt one of them by only Endorsing the other, so therefore, I am going to Endorse, for Governor of South Carolina, both Pam Evette and Alan Wilson!” Trump wrote on social media Friday. “It’s a Wealth of Riches – With either one you can’t go wrong.” The winner from Tuesday’s election will face state Rep. Jermaine Johnson (D) in November.

Polls close at 7 p.m. EDT. Follow Decision Desk HQ’s live results.
