Receipts, cash on hand, and outside (independent-expenditure) spending from the Federal Election Commission. Bars are scaled within this race. OPEN SEAT: incumbent Nancy Mace (R) is not running (running for governor). Primary held June 9 with runoffs June 23: Jenny Costa Honeycutt (R) defeated Mark Smith ~54-46 in the GOP runoff; Nancy Lacore (D, former Navy admiral) won the Democratic runoff. Sets up an all-female general (Honeycutt vs. Lacore) plus Libertarian and Alliance nominees. The field and its fundraising will keep updating as primaries settle and new FEC reports land.
The rating is grounded in this seat’s record on Akashic — its partisan lean, same-office history, and demographics. Read the full profile on the SC-01 place page.
