Runoff elections in South Carolina and Oklahoma on Tuesday will select nominees in a trio of races, with two closely watched Republican contests expected to produce heavy favorites in November.
Polling places in the states will close an hour apart on Tuesday night. Here’s when to expect the results.
South Carolina
Voters in South Carolina are casting ballots in the Republican primary runoff for the U.S. Senate seat formerly occupied by the late Lindsey Graham. Polls close at 7 p.m. Eastern time.
In the initial voting earlier this month, results did not take long to arrive, but officials caution that the results of the runoff could take slightly longer. Follow along with The New York Times’s vote tracker here.
The board of state canvassers will certify the results no later than Sept. 9.
