Some Florence voters have said they were confused at the voting booth Tuesday as city residents participated in two separate primaries — one for the city and one for federal, state and county contests.
A voter was able to cast a ballot in the Republican federal, state and county primary and in the Democratic city primary, or vice versa.
But because no Republicans are running for mayor, a city resident couldn’t vote in the mayoral contest if he or she had chosen a Republican city ballot.
Only Democratic candidates are seeking the office.
A voter who chose a Democratic ballot, however, could vote in the mayor’s race as well as for Democratic city council candidates.
