South Carolina
Senate: GOP Supermajority
12D
34R
House: GOP Supermajority
36D
88R
South Carolina is on the DLCC’s 2026 Target Map.
2026 is a historic opportunity to break the GOP supermajorities in the South Carolina House where Democrats need to gain just 6 House seats to break a GOP supermajority.Â
South Carolina Republicans have introduced some of the most extreme legislation in the country, including legislation that would charge women who get abortions with murder. Breaking the supermajority would allow Democrats to prevent Republicans from passing extreme constitutional amendments.Â
2026 is a historic opportunity to build power in red states all across the country, including gaining significant ground in South Carolina. Gaining seats in the House in this year’s favorable environment could help put this chamber in play in future cycles as more voters turn away from the failing GOP agenda.Â
The DLCC will be targeting several competitive races across the state. More info on DLCC Target Races in South Carolina coming soon.
