SUMMARY: The Electoral College has sparked significant debate, with two-thirds of Americans favoring a switch to a popular vote for presidential elections. The system allocates electors to states based on population, complicating direct voter influence. Critics highlight instances where candidates lost the popular vote yet won the presidency, while supporters argue it encourages candidates to engage beyond major urban areas. The issue gained prominence after Hillary Clinton won the popular vote but lost the 2016 election due to the Electoral College. The divide is evident, with Democrats more supportive of a popular vote approach. What are your thoughts on this debate?

SUMMARY: As South Carolina prepares for the 2024 election, election officials are enhancing measures to ensure integrity and security of the voting process. Howard Nap, executive director of the South Carolina State Election Commission, anticipates a record turnout of 2.5 to 2.8 million voters. They have invested $30 million in new, secure voting machines that are internet-free, along with additional ballot marking devices to alleviate potential line delays. Nap also addressed concerns about non-citizens on voter rolls, reporting no findings of inappropriate registrations. He emphasizes civility and encourages reporting any improprieties to local election offices for investigation.

Election integrity has become a hot topic over the last few years leading up to 2024 Election Day. ABC15 wanted to know what is being done in South Carolina to protect your vote. So, we went to the State Election Commission in Columbia to find out.
