Mace Wins House Race in South Carolina; Republican Pickup

(Bloomberg) -- Republican Nancy Mace upset Democratic incumbent Joe Cunningham in South Carolina’s 1st Congressional District, according to the Associated Press.

Mace, a state representative, and Cunningham had campaigned to the middle of the political aisle in a close race, two years after Cunningham’s surprise victory in 2018 flipped the Charleston-area district to Democrats for the first time in almost 40 years.
