Pete Buttigieg was all set to skip King Day at the Dome, a rally commemorating Martin Luther King Jr. in Columbia, S.C., and instead attend an MLK event in his hometown — until South Carolina state Rep. J.A. Moore intervened, after learning Buttigieg would be absent while most of his Democratic presidential rivals attended

Buttigieg and Klobuchar, who was also slow to confirm her attendance at King Day at the Dome but later reversed course, bounced out of Tuesday’s New Hampshire primary with top-three finishes, media attention and money flowing into their campaigns. But all that momentum could easily evaporate as they turn to states with significant numbers of Latino and African American voters, who have yet to show interest in either candidate in real numbers so far in the 2020 race, despite significant spending by Buttigieg in South Carolina


Still, the two states “present a real challenge for Pete and Amy because voters here don’t know them and they’ve seen no movement or growth in support among voters of color,” said Annette Magnus, executive director of Battleborn Nevada, a progressive group


South Carolina state Sen. Marlon Kimpson said it’s the same story in his state.

“It’s going to be a leap for us to get comfortable with a small-town mayor who’s just recently introduced himself,” said Kimpson, who has endorsed Biden. “And I don’t hear anyone talking about Amy Klobuchar in South Carolina. Not one.”
