Three South Carolina Races Head to Recounts, Including a Sub-1-Point Congressional Contest
South Carolina Democratic Party Chair Christal Spain announced in a statement on November 8 that three races in the state will go to recounts: the 2nd Congressional District and state House Districts 27 and 89.
In the 2nd Congressional District, Democratic candidate Zion Khalifa faces a recount against Republican incumbent Joe Wilson, who has served 25 terms, with the margin under one percentage point. In state House District 89, Democrat Joe March leads Republican House Majority Leader Micah Caskey by 107 votes. In District 27, Democrat John McCarthy trails Republican incumbent David Vaughn by 38 votes.
Spain said Democrats will follow the recount process closely to ensure every ballot is counted accurately and voters' will is respected. The state canvassing board is scheduled to meet on November 10, and none of the three races will be final until the recounts conclude.
