The bill H. 4340 aims to amend Section 7-13-25 of the South Carolina Code of Laws, specifically regarding early voting. The proposed amendment seeks to remove the existing provision that excludes presidential preference primaries from the application of early voting regulations. By deleting the language that states, "The provisions of this section do not apply to presidential preference primaries held pursuant to Section 7-11-20," the bill intends to ensure that early voting is applicable to these primaries.
If enacted, this change would allow voters to participate in early voting for presidential preference primaries, aligning them with the early voting provisions that apply to other elections. The bill is currently under consideration in the House Committee on Judiciary and will take effect upon approval by the Governor.
