Longtime Incumbent John Yancey McGill came out on top of the vote total against his opponent Cezar McKnight in the S.C. Senate District 32 Democratic primary Tuesday night, but he may not be declared the winner just yet.
Only 82 votes separated McGill and McKnight out of the 12,652 votes cast in the race.
When less than 1% separates the candidates, there is an automatic recount. That would be ordered by the South Carolina Election Commission after the results are certified by each of the counties and sent to the SCEC.
The seat represents parts of Horry, Georgetown, Florence, and Williamsburg counties.
