Like the battle for the governor’s estate, this will be a crowded field …

With the fusion of this week in the race of the governor of South Carolina, there was no very frequency tape of Palmetto Politicos to focus on the down race.

But this does not mean that the fierce political situation is not underway in these different competitions across the country … which, like the battle for the governor’s estate, will be reached with certainly until the primary GOP elections on June 9, 2026.

Which is only fifteen months, people …

A competition that is expected to see a flood from participation is the battle for the SC General Prosecutor, which is currently being held by the prosecutor’s office in the fourth term Alan WilsonS With Wilson, but he is not sure to seek the governor service in 2026, this means that this will be an open place – and numerous candidates are already looking forward to the post.

According to our sources, governor Henry McMaster -Who occupied this office from 2003-2011. Henry D. McMaster -Jr.., for the opening. And while the older McMaster may be a duck’s lame as CEO, he has many political services to trade based on his proximity to the US President Donald TrumpS

Many other contenders are also interested in the office, including the State Senator Steven Goldfinch – who according to the messages has indicated to his colleagues that he plans to manage. We are also told that many state lawyers are considering offers – including a first -chain lawyer David PascoThe Centrist Democrat, who was told he could look for the office as a Republican.

“At least two lawyers will run,” a state prosecutor told me. “At leastS “

There is also continued speculation about the potential political ambitions of Creeton WatersLead prosecutor in the internationally observed murder process against a convicted killer/recognized fraudster Alex MerdoS Widely viewed by his colleagues as a devout Democrat, can Waters install a strict platform for legislation and an order that avoids guerrilla policy? And more than there, whether the GOP electorate, which is transferred more to ideological law with each passing day, is subject to such a candidacy?

Wilson’s critics have accused him of excessive office politicization over the last fourteen years. They also blew him up for numerous national issues that insist that they be beyond his competence. His supporters insist that he simply represents the people who have chosen him – and claim that his elevation on the political profile of the cabinet has strengthened his hand (and throughout the hand of his heir).

“There is a reason for so many people to want this job,” I told me one of Wilson’s financial supporters this week. “And there is a reason so many people want to give him a promotion.”

The Prosecutor’s Office is an independent position in South Carolina. Its occupant serves a four -year term and is no Limited by term.
