24. Let me re-phrase then. There is little chance Biden won't win South Carolina.

This post is bordering on sh_t stirring. The AA demographic, dominant in Dem circles in SC, is stacked in Biden's favor.

That's just reality but doesn't mean the race will be over. Other candidates will win/do well in other states. Super Tuesday which will follow shortly after SC will include California this year with its huge delegate cache and will be pivotal in who emerges with a lead in delegates. Harris should do well there and will most likely have already done well in SC. Warren's strengths are in other states on Super Tuesday and she will emerge with a sizeable delegate count.

The race is hardly over and Gov. Cuomo of NY is trying to move NY's primary up to Feb. so stay tuned.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
