A review of South Carolina’s election process found no fraud that could have swayed results, but auditors do recommend cleaning up the voter rolls more often. The review of records from 2020 through 2023 found zero instances of a non-citizen voting in South Carolina.

Lynne Teague, with the League of Women Voters, said none of the glitches found by auditors should cause anyone to doubt the integrity of South Carolina’s elections. .“People who charge that our elections have no integrity are basically undermining our democracy,” said the vice president of the League’s South Carolina chapter. “There’s nothing in this review that should cause us to question whether we have a system that’s reasonable and fair and has integrity.”
