BREAKING: Joe Biden wins South Carolina primary
Vice President Joe Biden notched his first victory of the 2020 Democratic presidential primary on Saturday with a win in South Carolina that his campaign hopes will halt the momentum of Sen. Bernie Sanders and reset the race heading into Super Tuesday.Biden drew robust support from African-Americans in South Carolina, who make up nearly 60 percent of the state’s Democratic electorate.
Biden will need to continue to build on his momentum on Super Tuesday, especially in Southern states like Texas, North Carolina, Tennessee and Alabama which have a more conservative electorate than places like California, Colorado and Massachusetts which would seem to favor Sanders. Story continuesAnother state where Biden could do well next Tuesday is Virginia, and shortly after Biden was declared the winner in South Carolina, the state’s former governor, Terry McAuliffe, endorsed him and called on Democratic candidates Tom Steyer, Amy Klobuchar and Pete Buttigieg to drop out of the race. McAuliffe said Michael Bloomberg should also “take a look” at dropping out.
