For the third day in a row, a long line of early voters stretched along B Ave. near the community center in West Columbia, South Carolina. Less than a week from Election Day the early polling location was one of two available in Lexington County on Thursday. In addition to the Lexington County Auxiliary building , three other locations in the county served as early “satelite” polling locations: the Batesburg-Leesville Town Hall from Oct. 19-21, the Irmo Town Hall from Oct. 22-23, and the Chapin Town Hall on Oct. 26. Thursday was the final day for early voting at the B Ave. location in West Columbia.

The only location remaining open for early voting in the county will be the Lexington County Auxiliary building, open 8 a.m. - 5 p.m. on Friday and 9 a.m. on Saturday, Oct. 31.
