South Carolina Governor Henry McMaster will deliver his eighth State of the State address, making history as the state’s longest-serving governor at 2,927 days. McMaster, a 77-year-old Republican, took office in 2017 after Nikki Haley’s departure to become U.N. ambassador. McMaster’s early endorsement of Donald Trump in 2016 helped elevate his political career, and South Carolina’s unique succession rules allowed him to serve beyond the typical two terms. As McMaster addresses the state, he represents the changing political landscape in South Carolina and the impact of his years of service. His tenure is a blend of political skill and fortunate opportunities that have made him a significant figure in the state’s history. Governor McMaster’s State of the State address will be a reflection of his time in office and his vision for the future of South Carolina.
