Congratulations to our presumptive Democratic nominee, Joe Biden!
Biden's SC firewall in danger? 2020 front-runner's lead shrinks to new low.
(snip)
The latest poll released Thursday shows Biden with just a 7 percentage point lead among likely voters in the Souths first primary, the first time he has not held a double-digit advantage in seven Post and Courier-Change Research surveys taken since February.
Most consider South Carolina a must-win for Biden as he stumbles in Iowa and New Hampshire. Biden led the S.C. race by as much as 31 percentage points in May. Now, challengers are slicing into his dominant lead among African American voters in the first primary state with a significant black population.
Aided by voters under 50, U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont is continuing his recent national surge in South Carolina, where he has supplanted U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts for second place.
Sanders gained the most support of any candidate since the last Post and Courier-Change Research poll taken in October. He added 7 percentage points to pass Warren, whose backing was unchanged.
