Voting steady in SC today.

[hrmjustin]

Poll workers reported steady turnout at the polls in the First Congressional District race today, with Bethany United Methodist Church hitting 18 percent turnout by noon.

Former Gov. Mark Sanford is facing Democrat Elizabeth Colbert Busch – and Green candidate Eugene Platt – in the special election for the seat vacated by Tim Scott when he was appointed to the Senate.

Workers at Dorchester Presbyterian Church said they were hoping for at least 30 percent turnout by the end of the day.“We're going to have a good day. I know it,” Bob Veline said.

There appeared to be no significant issues with the voter ID law or the voting machines so far, and Democratic poll watchers, including County Chairman Richard Hayes, reported a smooth process.

3. That doesn't really give any indication of the effects of the voter ID law.

I suppose we'll get stats on that after the fact.

4. Hopefully the Democratic GOTV machine went above and beyond the call of duty.

Also, hopefully Elizabeth's relationship to Stephen got the youth vote off off their asses and to the polls.
