Voters in three Charleston-area state House races and one Charleston County Council district will head back to the polls on Tuesday for runoff elections.

Polls are open 7 a.m. until 7 p.m. Voters did not have to vote in the primary election two weeks ago today. f you voted on June 9, you must vote for the same party in the runoff, but if you did not vote then, you can vote in either party’s runoff.

If you have an absentee ballot, you can still turn it in by 7 p.m. when the polls close at county election headquarters. Charleston City Paper endorsed in the three state House races.

The four races with runoffs are:

House District 99 (Republican)
David Herndon
Mark Smith

House District 109 (Democratic)
James Johnson
Deon Tedder

House District 115 (Democratic)
Carol Tempel
Spencer Wetmore

County Council District 3 (Democratic)
Rob Wehrman
Jesse Williams
