The bill H. 4340 aims to amend Section 7-13-25 of the South Carolina Code of Laws concerning early voting. Specifically, it seeks to remove the existing provision that excludes presidential preference primaries from the application of early voting regulations. The current language states that the provisions of this section do not apply to presidential preference primaries held under Section 7-11-20, which will be deleted if the bill is enacted.

By eliminating this exclusion, the bill intends to allow early voting for presidential preference primaries, thereby expanding access to the electoral process for voters in South Carolina. The proposed changes will take effect upon approval by the Governor.
