In the 2026 South Carolina gubernatorial race, candidate Wilson secured victories in the Lowcountry and Midlands regions, according to verified election results. These areas, including Charleston and Columbia, showed strong support for Wilson's campaign platform.
Meanwhile, candidate Evette dominated in other parts of the state, particularly in the Upstate and Pee Dee regions. Evette's performance in these areas highlights a divided electorate, with each candidate appealing to different geographic and demographic bases.
The Greenville area remains a key battleground, with results still too close to call. Both campaigns have focused significant resources on this region, which could ultimately decide the outcome of the race. As of the latest count, the margin in Greenville County is within a few percentage points.
State election officials continue to tally remaining votes, including absentee and provisional ballots. A final result is expected within the next few days. The winner will succeed Governor Henry McMaster, who is term-limited.
