Biden Jumps To A 15 Point Lead Over Sanders In South Carolina,,,,,Go Joe,,,😎

[Iamaartist]

PPP’s newest poll of Democratic primary voters in South Carolina finds it looking like a two person race, with only Joe Biden and Bernie Sanders reaching double digits in their support. Biden gets 36% to 21% for Sanders, with Elizabeth Warren at 8%, Pete Buttigieg and Tom Steyer at 7%, Tulsi Gabbard at 6%, and Amy Klobuchar at 3% rounding out the field



Other recent polls have found Steyer’s support in the 15-20% range. If he has indeed collapsed, as our poll seems to suggest, it appears his former supporters are making their way to Biden and helping him to open a bigger lead in the state. The key to Biden’s success continues to be strong support from African Americans- he gets 50% to 21% for Sanders, with no one else polling above 6%


If Sanders loses to Biden by double-digits and gets crushed with African-Americans, it will put an end to the story of Sen. Sanders’s “expanding coalition.” A big Biden win in South Carolina would shake up the race beneath Sanders and could be the first step in adding clarity to the muddled Democratic field

[womanofthehills]

55. Problem with this poll - 66% of respondents were over 46 yrs old

58. Yes, I followed the link.

That skews the results so much as to be unreliable.

[pfeiffer]

5. Aha! Yes!! You can do it Joe!!!

[jmg257]

6. Also important to note, cause sure as shit it will come up...

There’s been a lot of discussion about whether Republicans will try to interfere with the Democratic primary this weekend. We actually find that there are a fair number of Trump supporters- 14% of the electorate in this poll- planning to vote in the Democratic contest. But at this point their support is dispersing enough among different candidates not to have a real impact on the race- 32% are going to Gabbard, 15% to Sanders, and 12% to Biden. Unless Trump himself asks his supporters to go vote for someone in the Democratic primary, that doesn’t seem likely to end up being a major factor in the race.

This is heartening news. I’d just made a donation to the Biden campaign that I’d really rather have kept in my savings, but these are dark times.

I support Joe Biden not just because he’s one guy, but because I believe he’s a guy that can bring a team of Democrats across the finish line to a party win in November.

Joe Biden in the White House and Democratic pick-ups in the House and Senate: a win

Bernie Sanders wins the White House but Mitch McConnell retains control of the Senate: the good guys still lose.

I want a win.

[Iamaartist]

26. The cons would stay in with Sanders..they got to go...GOP

[NBachers]

45. Donations are the best way for individual citizens to give Joe momentum. Thanks- I want a win too.

[FloridaBlues]

27. Yes a nice big biden win! Steyer has fallen even after millions he poured into SC.

[Iamaartist]

32. He is the one we need...to take on a mess that the con made....and the GOP

Love Florida.....

[onecaliberal]

28. But but but I thought he should drop out...

[Croney]

29. This is good news. I wonder if maybe Bernie shouldn't have been

so anxious to go on TV and talk about his views.

I voted today!

[corbettkroehler]

30. This Makes Me Smile

I have every confidence that Sanders will emerge the victor in the Palmetto State come Saturday night. Even if it should turn into a squeaker, though, the larger trend bodes YUGE for Bernie.

31. The Jim Clyburn endorsement may have something to do with this.

33. The big dog is coming back ...

Bernie bro's may have counted their chickens before they're hatched.

The Bernie bus gonna crash into Bidens SC firewall and the wheels will fly off.

Lets see who's star is rising on Sunday morning!!!

[Iamaartist]

39. K&R,,speaking of big dogs we have a big German Shepherd ...

Star of the show Joe

[lucca18]

36. Thank you! Made my day!

[Iamaartist]

40. K&R

[joethedrummer]

38. It's a good sign for Biden

Looks like he's getting Steyer and Klobuchar voters to come over

[Iamaartist]

41. Yep sure is....

[Bear Creek]

42. Yeah

I really want Joe Biden so he can increase credit card rates and cause people to lose their houses again. He really loves insurance companies also. He votes for companies and against people.

[emmaverybo]

43. K+R

[SylviaD]

44. Joe is my second choice.

I hope he wins big over Sen. Sanders.

I say GO JOE.

[BadgerMom]

46. Gabbard at double the percentage of Klobuchar?

I have trouble wrapping my head around that. Of course, that’s not a novel trouble these days.

[JohnBoltonsmustache]

48. The OP's headline cherrypicked the poll that is the outlier

Since the two Marist polls published over the weekend gave Biden leads both within the margin of error, 4% & 1% leads of Sen Sanders.
“Biden gets 27% of support among likely Democratic voters in Saturday’s presidential primary, while the Vermont senator garners 23%. The gap falls within the survey’s plus-or-minus 6 percentage point margin of error.”

[onetexan]

49. LOL love the pompom bunnies

thank u for the great news!!

Go Joe!

[LiberalFighter]

50. While Bill de Blasio on MSNBC now provides the narrative based on the previous poll.

And Chris Matthews has that dimwid Susan Page doing the same thing.

[ehrnst]

52. Cue the "No Dem ever wins SC in the General so who cares who wins SC???!!!!!???!!!

So just STOP talking about it!!!!!" posts...

[Loki Liesmith]

53. Seems an outlier

But hope it’s true

[WinstonSmith4740]

54. How the hell is Gabbard polling at 6%

Vlad's people running her ads?

[warmfeet]

56. If Joe Biden wins the nomination,

I will, without hesitation, vote for him in the general election.
