PPP: South Carolina--HRC: 55% Sanders: 34%

In the Democratic race, frontrunner Hillary Clinton still holds a double-digit lead — 55-34 — over U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders, according to a separate poll of 525 likely Democratic primary voters.

Sanders and Clinton are tied among white S.C. voters, the poll said. But Clinton has a strong lead among African-American voters, expected to make up more than half of Democratic primary voters. Among those voters, 63 percent said they back Clinton compared to 23 percent for Sanders.

Fourteen percent of black Democratic voters said they were undecided.

She can end this with a defacto in on March 1st.

Take SC by a wide margin then onto Super Tuesday.

It is the only poll of all polls taken since last fall to show Hillary with a deficit with white voters. She has been tied or slightly ahead with them.
