All registered voters* can vote early, with no excuse needed. You can walk in, show your photo ID, and vote without any extra paperwork. You can vote early at the Pickens County Voter Registration office at 222 McDaniel Ave in Pickens, or at our local early voting site:

Dates: October 19 - October 31 (you can vote on Saturdays but not on Sundays).
Times: 8:30 a.m. - 6 p.m.
If you are not available to vote during this time or on election day, or circumstances prevent you from voting in person, you can vote Absentee by Mail. Please follow directions here to apply for and mail in your ballot. You must apply for a mail-in ballot before Oct. 23.
If you do not choose to vote early, you can go to the ballot box on Election Day, Tuesday, November 3. Find your voting location here. Be sure to double-check where you vote, as this information may have changed from previous years. You can vote in person on Election Day from 7 a.m. - 7 p.m. Everyone in line before 7 p.m. will be allowed to vote. Bring a photo ID.
First, please do not vote straight ticket. Doing so will risk your vote not being made in some key elections. Please skip the first screen asking for a single-party vote, and instead go through each office to select your choice.

After four years on Pickens County Council, I’m ready to represent our area in the state house. I will work diligently for a more affordable quality of life, better roads, and less government intervention. I will be a new, strong voice for Clemson, Central and Six Mile, and a much-needed positive change in South Carolina state politics. I’d be honored to have your vote.
