Former Republican Rep. Mark Sanford is launching a comeback bid for his old House seat, eight years after losing a primary to a challenger backed by President Donald Trump.

Sanford was ousted in a 2018 Republican primary by candidate Katie Arrington, who went on to lose the general election to Democratic Rep. Joe Cunningham. Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) flipped the seat back to Republican with her 2020 win, but the congresswoman is running for governor and will not seek another term.
