  • Nancy Mace's Old Email Surfaced in the Ashley Madison Leak

    In March 2024, The Spectator's Washington gossip column 'Cockburn' reported that an old realtor-era email address belonging to Rep. Nancy Mace turned up in the searchable database from the 2015 Ashley Madison hack. The column itself is careful: Ashley Madison never verified email addresses at signup, so anyone could have entered hers, and it flags a possible smear or prank. The verified fact is narrow, her email appeared in the leaked database, and Mace's office did not respond to requests for comment.
