Trump-endorsed candidates take on Republican lawmakers who defied him, and candidates who spread the ex-president's election lies aim to run Nevada's voting.
Republican Rep. Tom Rice of South Carolina is facing challenges from the right for his vote to impeach former President Trump.Another South Carolinian catapulted to notoriety in January 2021 — GOP Rep. Nancy Mace, a first-term member who had just flipped her Charleston district from blue to red.
Mace, meanwhile, is backed by two ex-members of Trumpworld: former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley and Mick Mulvaney, who did a stint as White House chief of staff. Jim Marchant, a former state legislator, stands out among several GOP candidates in his zealous embrace of false election conspiracy theories. In 2020, he sued over his loss in a Nevada congressional race, alleging fraud; the suit was dismissed by a state judge. He has since allied with figures such as MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell, who has traveled the country pushing outlandish and unproven election theories.
Election administration is not typically a scintillating topic, but as scores of GOP candidates embrace groundless charges of fraud, the positions with oversight over voting has become a matter of national interest.
