On Tuesday, South Carolinians went to the polls to vote in the 2022 primary election.This week, we’re talking about a few of the most closely-watched races with help from our politics team at The Post and Courier.In this primary, there was a kind of tale of two Trump endorsements: There were two Congressional races in South Carolina where a stamp of approval from Donald Trump was in play.

Their challengers had earned Trump's support. Things played out very differently in each of those races.Politics reporters Nick Reynolds and Caitlin Byrd break down what happened in the GOP primary races in the state's 1st and 7th congressional districts, and Columbia bureau chief Seanna Adcox explains the results of the Democratic primary for this year's race for governor in South Carolina.For more information about the Republican primary in SC-01, check out this episode of Understand SC.More primary coverage:Rice loses SC congressional seat to Fry in GOP primary after voting to impeach TrumpTurnout shows even Tom Rice’s neighbors chose Russell Fry over him in GOP primary blowoutNancy Mace survives fierce SC Republican primary against Trump-backed Katie ArringtonRepublican Nancy Mace beat Katie Arrington where it counted: Charleston and BeaufortDemocrat Joe Cunningham’s runaway victory as governor nominee boosted by two letters: TVUnderstand SC is a weekly podcast from The Post and Courier that draws from the reporting resources and knowledge of our newsroom to help you better understand South Carolina. Are there any stories you'd like to hear on the show?
