AINews Summary

South Carolina Republicans are heading into a June 23 runoff for governor between Pamela Evette and Alan Wilson. Early voting starts June 17, and Wilson has recently added high-profile endorsements from Ted Cruz and Ralph Norman. Evette finished first in the primary, so the race remains close. The runoff keeps the nomination race unsettled, but Wilson’s recent endorsements may improve his position. Evette still has the first-round edge, so the market likely stays competitive and somewhat uncertain.
