Charleston, SC., September 25, 2025 – Nancy Mace for Governor campaign is calling on Lt. Gov. Pamela Evette to immediately take down her false and misleading TV ad claiming support from President Donald Trump and Governor Henry McMaster, neither of whom have endorsed any candidate in the race for Governor. The ad falsely suggests both President Donald Trump and Governor Henry McMaster have endorsed her candidacy, a lie that Evette has pushed multiple times throughout this campaign both publicly and privately in an effort to confuse voters. At the very least it is unethical, and at the very most it is disqualifying.
“This is nothing but more false advertising from Pam Evette,” said Piper Gifford, Press Secretary for Nancy Mace for Governor. “Evette is trying to trick Republican voters with a non-existent Trump endorsement. The fact is simple: President Trump has not endorsed her, and neither has Governor McMaster. In fact, McMaster has made it crystal clear he isn’t endorsing anyone at this time, including his own Lieutenant Governor.”
“Evette’s ad is nothing more than smoke and mirrors from a politician who knows she can’t win on her record,” continued Gifford. “South Carolina voters deserve honesty, not fake endorsements from a candidate who lies.”
The campaign is demanding stations across South Carolina stop airing Evette’s ad immediately to protect voters from being lied to.
