The 2018 South Carolina House of Representatives elections  took place as part of the biennial  United States elections . South Carolina  voters elected state representatives  in all 124 of the state house's districts. State representatives serve two-year terms in the South Carolina State House . A statewide map of South Carolina's state House districts can be obtained from the South Carolina House's website  here , and individual district maps can be obtained from the U.S. Census here .
A primary election on June 12, 2018, and a primary runoff on June 26, 2018, in races in which no candidate received over 50% of his/her party's primary vote, determined which candidates appeared on the November 6 general election ballot . Primary election results can be obtained from the South Carolina Secretary of State 's website.[ 1] 
Following the 2016 state house elections, Republicans  maintained effective control of the House with 80 members. Democrats  held 44 seats following the 2016 elections.
In the 2018 election, although multiple seats flipped between parties, there was no net change. Therefore, Republicans maintained an 80-to-44-seat majority over Democrats.
