Former President Donald Trump once again takes center stage in Tuesday's midterm primary elections, as voters decide for whom to cast their ballot in Maine, South Carolina, Nevada, and North Dakota.
In South Carolina, the former president has backed challengers to current GOP Reps. Tom Rice and Nancy Mace. Rice, a Trump critic, voted for Trump's impeachment following the Capitol riot. Mace, on the other hand, has gone back and forth in her support for the former president, Politico reports.
