Poll: Biden holds 15-point lead in South Carolina
By Max Greenwood - 02/24/20

Former Vice President Joe Biden holds a wide lead in the South Carolina Democratic presidential primary, according to a new survey from the left-leaning firm Public Policy Polling.

The poll shows Biden with 36 percent support in South Carolina, which holds its primary contest on Saturday. He’s trailed by Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) at 21 percent.

No other candidate received double-digit support in the survey. Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) placed third with 8 percent support, while billionaire activist Tom Steyer and former South Bend, Ind., Mayor Pete Buttigieg tied for fourth with 8 percent each.

4. Yes. My fingers are crossed.

6. Bernie is winning with Black Americans.

He got the most in Nevada.

10. No, Biden did

Bernie did best among Latino voters in NV, though.

16. Try again.

Polls: Voters see Sanders as best candidate to beat Trump, leads with black voters nationally

Bernie got 30% of black voters in Nevada compared to 25% for Biden.

18. Where did you get those numbers?

They are not in the article you linked.

According to CNN's post of the entrance poll, Biden got 38% of African American voters in Nevada and Bernie got 28%. https://www.cnn.com/election/2020/state/nevada

21. That's closer to the numbers I saw on TV

[brush]

22. Stop posting untruthful info that's so easily refuted.

[TwilightZone]

25. You might want to re-read your source.

It doesn't say what you claim it does.

[Walleye]

5. Lame

[tritsofme]

8. Do you write your own jokes?

[doxyluv13]

9. Yes, I do.

Just trying to provide a little amusement to the Biden supporters who think he's going to win SC by 15 points and are apt to need cheering up.

[brush]

12. Stop being ridiculous. And enjoy your stay.

[InAbLuEsTaTe]

13. Which other Biden was Joe tellin people to vote for? Seems a lot more concernin than him sayin

here's runnin for the Senate. But, hey, that's just me.


Bernie/Elizabeth or Elizabeth/Bernie 2020!!
Either way, they're stronger together & can't be bought!!
Jump on the Bernie Bandwagon & join The Revolution!!

[LanternWaste]

20. You're right. It is just you.

(By the way, I'm really proud of the grammatical improvements you've been making.)

[OliverQ]

3. No he didn't.

NBC News/Marist SC poll: Biden narrowly leads Sanders ahead of South Carolina primary

Your poll is a massive outlier.

7. Hard to know because there wasn't an earlier one from same group.

That said, it is what it is.

11. Since when are PPP polls outliers? Some 800 people were polled.

Biden doing well in SC is not an outlandish claim when 60% of the Dem votes are African American.

Stop being ridiculous.

[TwilightZone]

14. Could be an outlier.

Most of the others have him in the mid 20s. It also has Steyer at 7% which is way off of the others.

Hard to tell since this appears to be the first one PPP has done so we don't have a baseline.

15. Some 800 people were polled, not an outlier.

[TwilightZone]

17. That doesn't really prove anything.

Even bad pollsters can poll a lot of people, though PPP is usually pretty solid (B on 538).

[brush]

19. 60% of the Dem vote in SC is African American so the PPP poll, IMO, is not an outlier since...

Biden is very popular with that segment of our party's base.

[TwilightZone]

26. Pollsters routinely adjust for demographics.

[Bonobo]

27. If he doesn't win by at LEAST 15 points, it's a loss for him.

[brush]

29. Because you say so? I don't think so.

[Bonobo]

30. No, it is absolutely true. It's been the straw that he's been clinging to.

Mr. Inevitable. Remember?

[brush]

31. So if he wins by 10 points he loses? Such hogwash.

[Cha]

28. Excellent.. Mahalo, brush!
