Nancy Mace Cancels Speech After Almost No One Shows Up
HuffPost
The South Carolina gubernatorial candidate was reportedly set to talk at a local Moms for Liberty chapter before her "plans seemingly changed."
Rep. Nancy Mace (R-S.C.) canceled a speech in South Carolina on Thursday after just eight people showed up to an event that was billed to have 100-plus people in attendance, local news site MyHorryNews.com has reported.
Mace — who is running for South Carolina governor — was expected to lead a “parental rights” rally in Myrtle Beach hosted by the Horry County chapter of the far-right, anti-trans Moms for Liberty group.
But, as MyHorryNews put it, “plans seemingly changed” once she walked into a room of mostly empty chairs. The speech was scrapped, with a member of her team telling reporters that Mace would take questions from the media before she met individually with the attendees.
In remarks to reporters, she declared that the county “makes presidents” before claiming that her campaign is “winning by double digits everywhere, but particularly with folks who support the president,” per Charleston’s ABC affiliate.
Earlier this week, her campaign shared internal poll numbers showing her leading the South Carolina GOP gubernatorial field among Republican primary voters, figures that Donald Trump — who has notably yet to endorse a candidate in the race — later shared to his Truth Social platform.
