- On October 3, Mace joined seven Republicans and nearly all Democrats in voting to remove McCarthy from leadership.
- By a 216-210 vote, McCarthy became the first U.S. House speaker removed from office in history.
- Mace cited broken promises involving women’s legislation and safer communities, saying her vote concerned trust rather than ideology.
- The other five South Carolina Republicans backed McCarthy; the Washington Post reported allies considered expelling Mace from a roughly 40-member, mostly Republican group.
This isn’t about left vs right. This isn’t about ideology. This is about trust and keeping your word. This is about making Congress do its job.— Nancy Mace wrote in a statement posted on social media shortly after casting her vote to remove McCarthy.

- Tuesday will see voters in the Republican primary in South Carolina's 1st congressional district determining the political fate of the controversial sophomore, Republican Representative Nancy Mace.
- The fiercely contested congressional race in South Carolina showcases the challenging tightrope many Republicans in more moderate districts navigate in the era of Trump, as they strive to demonstrate allegiance to the party influencer while sidestepping extremist labels.
- While the former president commands substantial backing in South Carolina, the impact of his endorsement on Mace remains uncertain. Despite Trump's backing, Mace's primary contender - Catherine Templeton, the state's former labor, licensing, and regulation director - has rejected calls to yield to the ex-president's support by withdrawing from the race.
- Mace and Templeton share stances on immigration and inflation - central themes in both campaigns - yet diverge starkly on abortion, a pivotal issue in red-state politics since the Supreme Court's reversal of Roe vs. Wade in June 2022, devolving the issue to state discretion.
