Biden keeps large lead in SC's 2020 Democratic presidential primary: JB 36; EW 17; BS 16; KH 12 [View all]

COLUMBIA — Despite two shaky debates and some recent misstatements, South Carolina Democratic voters still prefer former Vice President Joe Biden in the South’s first presidential primary.

Biden led Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren 36 percent to 17 percent in South Carolina, according to the latest Post and Courier-Change Research Poll.

His advantage dropped by only one point from the last poll taken two months ago before the debates where Biden struggled in the face of pointed challenges about his political record on race and foes raised questions about his comment on working well with segregationists while in the Senate.

Biden has led all five Post and Courier-Change Research polls taken since February by an average of 22 percentage points. His lead in South Carolina is the largest among the primary’s early-voting states.
