The 1910 United States House of Representatives elections in South Carolina were held on November 8, 1910, to select seven Representatives for two-year terms from the state of South Carolina. Six incumbents were re-elected and the open seat in the 2nd congressional district was retained by the Democrats. The composition of the state delegation thus remained solely Democratic.
Incumbent Democratic Congressman George Swinton Legaré of the 1st congressional district, in office since 1903, defeated James H. Lesesne in the Democratic primary and Republican Aaron P. Prioleau in the general election.
