Voter registration deadline approaches

Are your papers in order for this year’s primary elections? To help ensure voters are prepared, the State Election Commission reminds everyone that to vote on June 10 you must be registered by May 10—this Saturday. If you have moved, make sure you are ready to vote by updating your registration. If you have moved from one county to another, you must register in your new county by Saturday. And if you’ve moved within your county or changed your name recently, it will help ensure a smoother voting process for you—and your neighbors—by updating your information. You can register or update your registration at your county voter registration and elections office. Online you can go to scVOTES.org. That, however, requires a South Carolina driver’s license or DMV ID card.
