Two SC senators, Orangeburg party chairman among new Joe Biden 2020 endorsements 😎

Hoping to prove to the South Carolina Democratic primary electorate that Joe Biden is still viable heading into the state’s presidential primary Saturday ahead of Super Tuesday, the former vice president’s campaign on Sunday rolled out nearly a dozen new Orangeburg County endorsements that include two state senators and the party’s chairman.
Democratic state Sens. Brad Hutto and John Matthews — the longest-serving African-American lawmaker in the General Assembly — and Orangeburg County Democratic Party chairman Kenneth Glover are among 11 new names who are backing Biden’s 2020 bid.
Other names include former party chairwoman Betty Henderson, Orangeburg Mayor Michael Butler and other elected officials


Biden’s campaign says those endorsements now make 180 in the state, home to the country’s “First in the South” presidential primary

In a statement, Henderson said Biden is the candidate to unite the country and step into the Oval Office on the first day to “undo the damage (President Donald) Trump has done.”
“Joe has a bold vision that will not only restore our standing in the world, but make substantial progress on the issues that matter most to South Carolinians, like building on Obamacare and boosting access to health care in rural communities,” Henderson said

1. I hope this translates to votes, and with the Clayburn endorsement around the corner I hope

his lead increases in South Carolina

3. I am hoping to ..we already voted for Joe in Mich....

I just cant believe what's going on, and Sanders didn't know. Give me a break...he knew...more then he is telling..

climbing that fast in polls ,,No way without being rigged. Just my opinion

7. I am not going to speculate right now on that until there is more information

I am in California, and will be mailing my ballot in for Joe for Super Tuesday

What has hurt Joe the most in the polls I think was Bloomberg entering the race

I am so angry at him for him doing what he is doing. Not only hurting Biden the most, but fragmenting the non-Sanders Democrats, by making it more likely that either Sanders gets the nomination, or we end up with a contested election. Either scenario is not good

Maybe after the debates, and if Joe exceeds expectations in South Carolina, it can provide momentum into Super Tuesday, and diminish Bloomberg’s impact

12. Yes, Bloomberg is definitely hurting Biden and I don't believe he cares one way or the other.

13. What I would like to say about Bloomberg I can't, but because of him we are moving in the direction

of another four years of trump

These extremely wealthy people with bad g egos

Similar with Steyer, but to less of a degree

Still I hope with the up coming debate, and endorsements Biden is getting from South Carolina, that people will wake up and see what is happening

10. South Carolina has Bernie fever.

Don’t shoot the messenger, but I am predicting that Bernie takes SC by at least 60%. I could be wrong. We will know in a few days one way or another.

If that happens, what does that mean for the others?

I agree that Bloomberg is drawing off support of everyone else diluting the non Bernie voting block.

11. Sanders taking South Carolina by 60%?

Someone has a fever, but I'm afraid it's not South Carolina, my friend.

EDIT: Also, Bloomberg is not on the ballot in South Carolina and write-ins are not allowed in primaries there.
