Mace is among eight House Republicans who voted to remove McCarthy as speaker last year. The former congressman is seeking revenge.
Rep. Nancy Mace arrives at a House office building on Capitol Hill in Washington on Oct. 10, 2023. When eight House Republicans voted last year to remove Rep. Kevin McCarthy from the speakership, the then-congressman vowed revenge, promising to work to oust them from Congress.
She faces two challengers: Marine Corps veteran Bill Young and Catherine Templeton, who served as director of South Carolina’s labor agency under then-Gov. Nikki Haley and ran unsuccessfully for governor herself in 2018. “She’s not afraid to take on powerful people and powerful forces,” the statement said. “Serving the Lowcountry is the honor of her lifetime.”
