Mace Campaign calls on Catherine Templeton to Unite Party and Exit Race Following Trump Endorsement of Congresswoman Nancy Mace

March 13, 2024 – CHARLESTON, S.C. – Donald Trump, presumptive Republican nominee for president, gave his total and complete endorsement to Congresswoman Nancy Mace over the weekend. This endorsement not only solidifies Congresswoman Mace’s path to victory but also signals a pivotal moment in the race for 2024. The Nancy Mace for Congress Campaign is calling on Catherine Templeton to reconsider her candidacy.

“With the full support of Donald Trump, our campaign is positioned stronger than ever. This endorsement is a testament to Nancy Mace’s hard work and dedication to putting the Lowcountry first,” said Mace’s Campaign Manager John Mason Long. “Rather than waste precious resources with a circular firing squad meant to weaken Mace for the general election, we need to unite behind Congresswoman Mace to take on the millions of dollars the DC democrats will use to prop up her opponent in November. There is no time to waste.”

“Catherine Templeton continuing in this race not only divides our efforts to keep SC01 a Republican seat but also highlights her proven inability to win races,” said Campaign Spokeswoman Gabrielle Lipsky. “Templeton shamelessly defends Joe Biden’s border policies. And just this past weekend she apologized calling illegal immigrants, you guessed it, ‘illegal.’ All while Joe Biden himself apologizes for referring to Laken Riley’s killer as an ‘illegal immigrant.’ All this raises serious questions about her fitness for office and her values do not reflect our Lowcountry values,” Lipsky added.

“It’s time for Templeton to step aside and support the only candidate supported by our party’s leader and the only candidate who can win in November. To do otherwise would be to oppose the direction our party leader, Donald Trump, has set for us,” Campaign Manager John Mason Long stated.

Our campaign looks forward to focusing on the issues that matter most to the Lowcountry.
