CNN projects Alan Wilson will be the Republican nominee for governor in South Carolina, beating out Lieutenant Governor Pamela Evitt in the GOP primary runoff. Erin Burnett and John King report.

Alan Wilson’s victory over Pamela Evette on Tuesday was so decisive the race was called less than a half hour after polls closed.

Trump’s change of heart was a major blow to Evette’s campaign, which has heavily leaned into her being the president’s preferred pick.
