Staff turnover in Republican Rep. Nancy Mace's office is about as high as possible as she deals with a primary challenge from a former chief of staff, a recent report revealed. On Monday, The Daily Beast reported that her entire Capitol Hill staff has turned over since November 1. The only person fired was her former chief of staff, Dan Hanlon, whom she let go on December 1, 2023, and who reportedly left with the office popcorn machine. Mace's conduct in office has done more than rankle her former staff: it's also given her opponents plenty of fodder in their campaigns to unseat her. AdvertisementA representative from Mace's staff did not respond to Business Insider's request for comment.

Republican state lawmakers appealed that ruling, kicking the final decision up the conservative-dominated Supreme Court, where oral arguments were heard on Wednesday.

Black voters tend to favor Democratic candidates. In this case, the Republican-controlled state legislature was accused of racial gerrymandering to reduce the influence of Black voters. Clyburn's is the only one of South Carolina's seven U.S. House districts held by a Democrat. In another historical parallel, that district also was redrawn by 19th century legislators who sought to weaken the influence of Black voters.
