Incumbent Jim Clyburn maintains a commanding lead in the SC-06 general election market due to the district’s consistent Democratic lean, reflected in its D+13 Partisan Voter Index and strong performance in recent presidential and House contests. Clyburn easily secured the Democratic nomination in the June 2026 primary, while Republican nominee John Peterson advanced from a low-turnout contest. Nonpartisan forecasters rate the seat Solid or Safe Democratic, consistent with the district’s demographics and Clyburn’s long tenure. Trader consensus prices the outcome accordingly. A shift would require an unforeseen development such as a major scandal, health event affecting the incumbent, or an unprecedented national Republican wave large enough to overcome the district’s structural advantages. The general election is scheduled for November 3, 2026.
