| In what's turning out to be one of the most anticlimactic campaign rollouts in recent memory, SC Attorney General Henry McMaster finally has filed his campaign disclosure form with the SC Ethics Commission, signaling what we've all known for months - The Mac is running for governor.
The move means McMaster can begin transferring funds from his AG account to his new gubernatorial campaign coffer. And by the looks of it, he's gonna need to step up his fundraising game. Though he and GOP rival Rep. Gresham Barrett have similar cash on hand totals near the $1 million mark, Barrett out-raised McMaster by 2:1 in the second quarter.
Also of note, McMaster announced he's hired former SCGOP Communications Director Rob Godfrey to serve as his spokesman. Godfrey told the AP that McMaster will officially announce the launch of his campaign later this month. |
