Claim:
A video depicting an issue at a South Carolina poll that prevented constituents from casting their vote independently was uploaded for review and given three stars overall by those rating it.
On Election Night 2024, social media buzzed with video claiming to show suspicious activity at South Carolina polling station.
On video footage provided to him by another individual, one individual claims they saw people arrive by vehicle to vote; more specifically, election workers approached with voting machines appeared and appeared to operate them for voters:
Just drove past one of my local voting locations where you don’t actually enter to cast your ballot; rather they bring the voting machines right out to your car and push your buttons for you! No Republicans were present — all Democrats. What is happening here with our elections right now?

No evidence was presented by the narrator to support his belief that those involved “were all Democrats”. Furthermore, due to excessive traffic at the station he claimed “there wasn’t room to depict activities there”.
As the video became popular on X, its assertion changed into that a South Carolina poll station wasn’t letting Americans submit ballots:

No evidence was present to corroborate or disprove what the narrator claimed had happened; neither South Carolina polling location details, nor anything that might provide context as to if what he claimed had actually taken place.
At any rate, his activity fits within South Carolina’s voting protocols for disabled or elderly voters. According to South Carolina Election Board’s website, people with accessibility issues can vote via car (emphasis added by us).
Voters with disabilities or age 65+ who cannot easily access polling locations may use curbside voting instead, without needing a disability parking placard or poll manager supervision of 15 minutes intervals for this area of voting. Only voters entitled to assistance can remain inside their vehicle when voting curbside; drivers and passengers in vehicles do not qualify as individuals eligible to vote curbside unless meeting eligibility qualifications themselves.

Furthermore, certain people are eligible to assistance when operating voting machines (our emphasis). For example:
Voters with disabilities and those unable to read or write may receive assistance voting. You should inform a poll manager if assistance is required; anyone may assist except their employer, agent of their employer, officer of union representative. Poll managers provide printed instructions for voters who are deaf or hard of hearing.

Overall, there’s no evidence of South Carolina officials prohibiting people from voting independently and the activity depicted in the video is in line with state regulations concerning accessible voting.
Therefore, to present this video as evidence that South Carolina polling stations don’t let people submit their own votes is false. for (f.fbq=function()n.callMethod)?
