Tomorrow is a big day in Greenville. There are nine open primaries races where voters will get their opportunity. See below for details:

Republican

  • SC Senate – District 5 (Inc. Tom Corbin, John B. White)

  • SC Senate – District 6 (Inc. Mike Fair, Johnny Edwards, William Timmons)

  • SC Senate - District 12 (Inc. Lee Bright, David McCraw, Lisa C. Scott, Scott Talley)

  • SC House of Reps. – District 22 (Inc. Wendy Nanney, Jason Elliott)

  • County Council – District 18 (Inc. Joseph R. Baldwin, Mike Barnes)

  • County Council – District 21 (Lance Byars, Stacy Kuper, Rick Roberts) – no incumbent

  • Sheriff (Inc. Steve Loftis, Bruce Cannon, Hobart Lewis, William D. Will Lewis, Sam Manley)

Democratic:

  • SC Senate – District 7 (Inc. Karl B. Allen, Lillian Brock Flemming)

  • County Council – District 25 (Inc. Lottie Beal Gibson, Bajeyah Eaddy, Martha B. Evans, Ennis Fant, Bunk Johnson)

Some fast facts on these races:

  • Only one, Greenville County Council 21, does not feature an incumbent

  • Unless someone runs as a write-in, only three of the winners for these races will have challengers in November, so this is for all the marbles so to speak.

  • Those three are Greenville County Council 21 where Bill Michaud is running as a libertarian, State Senate 6 where Roy Magnuson is running on the Constitutional ticket, and State Senate 7 where Glen L. Robinson is running as a Republican.

  • Polls open at 7 a.m. and close at 7 p.m.

  • For a runoff to occur, no candidate gets more than 50 percent of the vote. The top two vote getters will be placed on a new ballot that will be held in two weeks.

  • A recount is automatic if the vote spread if less than 1 percent.
