Trans Congresswoman McBride Wishes Nancy Mace "Happy Pride" After Mace Finishes 5th In Primary

McBride drew a standing ovation after mocking Mace’s fifth-place finish and reposting a viral message about the South Carolina Republican’s defeat.

  • On Tuesday, Rep. Nancy Mace finished in fifth place in the South Carolina gubernatorial primary, prompting Rep. Sarah McBride to mock the result at Equality PAC's National Pride Gala in Washington, D.C.
  • Mace, who previously introduced legislation barring transgender people from using Capitol restrooms, frequently targeted McBride during her congressional term through speeches and legislative fights.
  • At the gala, McBride told the crowd Mace was in a "respectful fifth place," adding she didn't like "punching down" and believed in "the politics of grace." The room erupted in applause.
  • Lieutenant Governor Pamela Evette, endorsed by President Donald Trump, won first place with nearly 29 percent of the vote. Mace conceded and endorsed Attorney General Alan Wilson, who advanced to a runoff.
  • Mace attributed her loss to breaking with fellow Republicans over the Epstein files last year, though she expressed no regrets. She plans to return to the private sector when her term ends in January 2027.
