This should be one of Biden's best states.

Feel the Bern 

[GSU&UT 1798]

Yeah Biden going to win by at least 10 points, probably 15. It will be interesting to see if Steyer is above 15%.

[Pasken 1309]

Could Amy get a negative percentage?

The narrative coming out of tonight is going to be a beating.

Hopefully it will be snuffed out on Tuesday.

[Ghost of LL 15491]

It is going to be real interesting to see how this turns out.  Biden could leave South Carolina with (a) the most pledged delegates and (b) the most votes nationwide. 

If he gives a good victory speech, he could start really pulling in the money from the big cigars.

Of course, his typical speech could kill any momentum he otherwise might have generated.

[David Dennison 18656]

Voters under the age of 45 not promising for the Bern.

[Bama Chick 28596]

If those exit polls are accurate, that number for 18-29 voters is a HUGE disappointment.

[bad_teammate 13132]

From the 2020 primary thread...

OK so here was my Thursday guess...

Biden - 35%
Bernie - 19%
Steyer - 17%
Warren - 12%
Buttigieg - 9%
Klobuchar - 8%

If I was to change it, I'd move Biden (to low 40s) up a lot and Bernie up a little (to low 20s) and would have Steyer still #3 but 5 points lower.

My heart wants BERNIE - 100%, of course

It definitely undercuts Bernie's argument that he'll get out the youth vote. 

[GSU&UT 1798]

Reminder that like every exit poll underestimated the the youth turnout.

Bernie would have to be below 15% to not get any state-level delegates, it could happen but I don't think it's likely.

[bad_teammate 13132]

2016 exit polls - CNN

17-29: 15%
30-44: 20%
45-64: 47%
65+: 19%

Also, Bernie got wrecked lol

Clinton - 73%
Sanders - 26%

Still stronger than Biden's argument that he's going to airdrop millions of black grandmothers into swing states.

This and Florida are probably Bernie's two worst states.

No one in here has looked at any state polling. Biden winning by 15ish will be in line with polling the last week.

But we're told if Bern wins and other candidates voters don't turn out then it's all of our faults and not Berns.

You all realize that's in South Carolina, a state that is 100% going to go red in November right?

From what we've seen, Bern only generates turnout in a caucus format and even that is debatable. 

[6th Street 6357]

Bernie's platform does not appeal to black voters 

[BradInATX 9208]

When will Bernie drop out and let the more serious candidates fight it out?

Literally my sister and her husband live in Columbia and do not show up to vote in the general because Democrats have no chance in hell in presidential years. This is a poll one state.

Thanks for stating the obvious, it's not as if i haven't tried to convince them.

You can make the same case for Texas

So is your state. So is my state. So is Texas.

So don’t start with this bullshittery.

Are Democrats supposed to just tell us blue dots in red states they don’t matter?

That garbage narrative plays right in line with the Republican false narrative of “Democrats don’t care about anyone but coastal elites!”.

As my man Beto always says, “Go everywhere. Engage with everyone. Don’t write anyone off.”.

You never know what could happen.

Every single “pundit” on this board - save me and two others - swore up and down and bet the farm that Doug Jones would lose in 2017.

Democrats in red states matter. Brushing off the Democratic primary results in red states is counterproductive and honestly smacks of sour grapes coming from the Bernie camp.

Thank you. 

Am I supposed to ignore the fact that we're in striking distance of taking the House in the TX Lege? Or that Virginia went from red to purplish blue?

Fuck off with the idea of abandoning SEC country. 

Bernie's fucking problem is the same one he's had. When he's got to win a majority of black voters he can't.

Cool? Do i have control over everyone that is a Bernie supporter? Me and every Bernie supporter i know in real life is voting for the nominee regardless. It's freakung February still, we have a long way to go it appears. I think Biden gets smoked by Trump but I'll vote for his senile ass regardless.

[bad_teammate 13132]

Yeah the idea that a bunch of Republicans were going to flood the Dem polls is laughable. I'd been looking at #OperationChaos on Twitter and it's a tiny handful of MAGA freaks.
