WASHINGTON – U.S. Sen. Tim Scott says three factors will be under consideration when deciding whether he'll run for governor in 2018.

"God, my family, and Trey Gowdy," the South Carolina Republican told The Post and Courier on Tuesday.

Scott is deeply spiritual, and he remains devoted to his relatives who still live back home in the Palmetto State.
