The primary election on June 14, 2016 and primary runoff on June 28, 2016 determined which candidates appeared on the November 8, 2016 general election ballot. Primary election results can be obtained here. [1]

Following the 2012 state senate elections, Republicans maintained effective control of the Senate with 28 members.

To reclaim control of the chamber from Republicans, the Democrats needed to net 6 Senate seats.

Republicans retained control of the South Carolina Senate following the 2016 general election and the overall numerical composition of the chamber was unaltered.
