| Elections in South Carolina |

The 2024 United States presidential election in South Carolina is scheduled to take place on Tuesday, November 5, 2024, as part of the 2024 United States elections in which all 50 states plus the District of Columbia will participate. South Carolina voters will choose electors to represent them in the Electoral College via a popular vote. The state of South Carolina has nine electoral votes in the Electoral College, following reapportionment due to the 2020 United States census in which the state neither gained nor lost a seat.[1]
Although not as right-leaning as the other Deep South states apart from its newly competitive neighbor Georgia, South Carolina has a conservative voting pattern and is considered a strongly red state at the federal and state level, with the only Democratic presidential candidate to win the state since JFK in 1960 being Georgian Jimmy Carter in 1976. Therefore, the state is expected to vote Republican in 2024, as it has in each election starting in 1980.[2]
Incumbent Democratic president Joe Biden is running for reelection to a second term.[3]
