In the past two weeks, a record number of South Carolinians – just over a million and a half people in person or by mail – voted early. That’s about 46 percent of registered voters in the state. But unlike the early voting period, voters who will vote on Election Day must go to their specific polling places.

Voters must have a valid photo ID to register. Acceptable forms of photo ID include South Carolina Driver’s License, South Carolina Department of Motor Vehicles ID, South Carolina Concealed Weapons Permit, South Carolina Photo Voter Registration Card, US Military ID and a United States passport.

If you still have an absentee ballot, the deadline to return it is 7:00 PM on Election Day. Voters are encouraged to return their ballots in person to ensure they are received before the deadline.

The State Board of Elections says if you vote on Tuesday, it’s hard to predict how long you might have to wait in line, although more people usually go in the morning. But they say South Carolina’s strong turnout for early voting should help overall wait times.

The biggest battle in the 2024 general election is the race for the White House between Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris and former Republican President Donald Trump.

Polling stations will close at 7 p.m. across the country. Ballot counting won’t begin until then, though State Election Commission officials are confident all statewide races will be decided by the end of the evening.
