How to Cast Your Ballot

Listed below are locations where Charleston County residents can register to vote. Registrants must be a U.S. citizen, a resident of South Carolina and be at least 18 years old by the next general election. Based on state and federal law, each eligible applicant is registered within the proper precinct and various single-member districts.

Citizens may also register by mail. Applications are available at Charleston County Library branches, city halls, post offices and various high schools. An online application is available through SCVotes.org or the S.C. Election Commission Web Site.

State and federal laws, including the Motor Voter Act, dictate that the S.C. Department of Public Safety's Division of Motor Vehicles must offer voter registration to all citizens. Other agencies also mandated to offer voter registration include military recruitment stations and various other federal and state offices. However, you must also be a client at the location where you want to register.
