Under the first ], a president of the state was elected for a term of two years, who then could not run again until four years had passed. The 1865 constitution briefly increased terms to four years, but that was changed in the 1868 constitution back to two years, with no term limit. An amendment in 1926 increased term lengths to four years, but limited governors to not being able to succeed themselves; an amendment in 1981 allowed governors to succeed themselves once. The 1776 constitution created the office of vice-president, renamed to lieutenant governor in 1778, to succeed to the governorship should it become vacant. |

The governor of South Carolina is the head of government of South Carolina and serves as commander-in-chief of the U.S. state's military forces. The current governor is Henry McMaster.
Governors
For the period before independence, see List of colonial governors of South Carolina.South Carolina was one of the original Thirteen Colonies and was admitted as a state on May 23, 1788. Before it declared its independence, South Carolina was a colony of the Kingdom of Great Britain. It seceded from the Union on December 20, 1860, and was a founding member of the Confederate States of America on February 4, 1861. Following the end of the American Civil War, South Carolina during Reconstruction was part of the Second Military District, which exerted some control over governor appointments and elections. South Carolina was readmitted to the Union on July 9, 1868.
Under the first constitution of South Carolina, a president of the state was elected for a term of two years, who then could not run again until four years had passed. The 1865 constitution briefly increased terms to four years, but that was changed in the 1868 constitution back to two years, with no term limit. An amendment in 1926 increased term lengths to four years, but limited governors to not being able to succeed themselves; an amendment in 1981 allowed governors to succeed themselves once. The 1776 constitution created the office of vice-president, renamed to lieutenant governor in 1778, to succeed to the governorship should it become vacant.

- Rutledge vetoed the new constitution, and after his veto was overturned, he resigned.
- Arthur Middleton was elected to succeed Rutledge, but he declined the office, as he shared Rutledge's objections to the new constitution. Lowndes was then elected.
- There was no 1780 election, due to issues arising from the American Revolutionary War, so Rutledge continued to serve after his term would normally have ended, and Mathews' term was accordingly shortened.
- ^ Under the 1778 constitution, governors were ineligible for the office for four years after the end of their term.
- Christopher Gadsden was elected in 1782, but declined, so the legislature then chose Mathews.
- ^ Under the 1790 constitution, governors were ineligible for the office for four years after the end of their term.
- Represented the Democratic-Republican Party
- Hamilton resigned near the end of his natural term, due to complaints about him running for a seat in the South Carolina legislature while still sitting as governor. Hamilton's resignation was submitted on December 1, but it does not appear to have taken effect until his successor was elected.
- ^ Under the 1861 constitution, governors were ineligible for the office for four years after the end of their term.

- Thompson resigned, having been confirmed as United States Assistant Secretary of the Treasury.

- Cooper resigned, having been appointed to the Federal Farm Loan Board.
- ^ Under the 1926 constitution, governors were ineligible to succeed themselves.
- Maybank resigned, having been elected to the United States Senate.
- ^ Harley died on February 27; even though the constitution says that the president pro tempore of the Senate would succeed to the office of governor should both it and lieutenant governor become vacant, Jefferies delayed accepting for several days, unsure if he wanted to leave his Senate duties.
- Johnston resigned, having been elected to the United States Senate.
- Russell resigned so that his successor would appoint him to the United States Senate.
- ^ Under a 1981 amendment to the constitution, governors are ineligible to be elected for more than two successive terms.
