Everywhere in the U.S., today is the official Election Day for the 2018 Midterm Elections.

During the midterms, offices including the U.S. Congress, the state legislature, the state supreme court (along with seats in local, state + national government) are up for election - but not the presidency.

In Greenville County, the polls open at 7 a.m. and close at 7 p.m. + include 152 voting precincts. See your individual ballot here (and check out the district maps here).

Brush up on your midterm trivia

Midterm elections are held every four years and take place between presidential elections. Voter turnout tends to drop in the midterm. All 435 seats in the U.S. House of Representatives + 33 seats in the U.S. Senate (about ⅓ of the total seats) are up for election, including 6,665 state positions. 36 states will elect a governor.

In S.C., we’re voting on whether Henry McMaster (R) will serve another term as Governor, or whether James Smith (D), will take the position. Once you’ve checked out your ballot, read our guide to the 2018 Midterm Election in Greenville County, then head to the polls armed with the knowledge of who you’re going to vote for.
