What to Bring to the Polls
Voters must present an accepted photo ID, such as a South Carolina driver’s license, South Carolina DMV identification card, U.S. passport, military ID or South Carolina voter registration card with a photo. Voters without photo ID may have provisional ballot options under state law.
Early voting locations may differ from regular Election Day polling places, so voters should confirm their location before heading out.
Whether you vote today or later this month, don’t miss the opportunity to have your voice heard. Local, state and federal elections help shape the future of our communities.
