Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC) has filed paperwork to run for president in 2024 ahead of his expected announcement next week.
Scott filed paperwork with the Federal Election Commission on Friday, all but guaranteeing that the South Carolina senator is preparing to enter the GOP primary to win the White House.
The FEC filing was done in advance of his Monday announcement in order to launch a $6 million ad buy, Scott's newly launched campaign told the Washington Examiner.
The ads will run statewide in Iowa and South Carolina, important battleground states and the first two GOP nominating contests.
