The bill H. 4340 aims to amend Section 7-13-25 of the South Carolina Code of Laws, which pertains to early voting. The primary change proposed in this bill is the deletion of the existing provision that excludes presidential preference primaries from the application of early voting regulations. By removing this exclusion, the bill seeks to ensure that early voting provisions will apply to presidential preference primaries, thereby allowing voters to participate in these elections in a manner consistent with other elections.

If enacted, this amendment would take effect upon approval by the Governor, thereby potentially expanding access to early voting for presidential preference primaries in South Carolina. The bill is currently under consideration in the House Committee on Judiciary after being introduced on April 9, 2025.
