Logikv9 posted:Wouldn't be surprised if all the media about how SC is in the tank for Hillary depressed her turnout, leading to a smaller margin of victory that will be parroted around by the Bernie campaign Could be a negative effect. But a lot of early voting took place where Clinton will have a huge lead, and there is high turnout in low population heavy Clinton areas.

Looking really good for Clinton except 1 county. Related but not source: http://www.bloomberg.com/politics/articles/2016-02-27/south-carolina-democratic-primary-sets-table-for-super-tuesday quote:South Carolina election officials are reporting generally light turnout for Saturday's Democratic presidential primary, which should favor Hillary Clinton in her pursuit of a dominating win over Bernie Sanders in the fourth round of nominating contests.

Concerned Citizen posted:Has anyone seen if there are throngs of young and first time voters coming to the polls for Bernie Sanders yet? Columbia is indicating a big firm no on that. (university of south carolina) Schnorkles posted:Charleston turnout looks good apparently, and some places are on par w/ 2008 according to charleston county board of elections director I guess. Hard to tell if this benefits Clinton or Sanders though- Clinton campaign put huge focus in Charleston. A lot of smaller counties are reporting similar to 2008 turnout too.

oystertoadfish posted:since most of the delegates are handed out to the congressional district winners, i wonder what the spread between the gerrymandered district with the concentrated black population and the other ones will be Sanders won't win a district. At this point its looking like he may not win a county but we'll see. Everything I'm seeing shows Clinton outperforming everywhere. I am wrong a lot though.

Tatum Girlparts posted:I really hope the news is about this poo poo because these are some surprising numbers, and if they represent a trend super tuesday is gonna be bonkers. From that ABC link: Youth vote down to 10-11% quote:Voters under 30, an overwhelmingly strong group for Sanders in earlier contests, account for slightly more than one in 10 South Carolina voters in preliminary exit poll results. That could end up as a new low this cycle; under-30s accounted for 18 or 19 percent in the three previous states, with more than eight in 10 voting for Sanders.

oystertoadfish posted:if this low youth turnout story persists as we get more data, i wonder how much of that's because of staying home and how much is from choosing to vote in the gop primary I suspect as more exit poll data comes in these numbers will move back towards normal but who knows.

Concerned Citizen posted:In 2008, the South Carolina 18-29 demographic was 14%. So it's down slightly. IF the exit polls are accurate (they probably aren't) then it's possible Clinton approaches a 40% margin.

Joementum posted:Kasie Hunt making a good point here about Bernie's fundraising momentum being strong, but their burn rate is also important and we don't know what that is right now. His burn rate is high, there was a good article on it the other day. He spent a lot in NH, NV and SC to "get in the game". Spent like $34m in Jan and raised $20m. You can see it in how low is super tuesday spending is.

Beforehand posted:I think it will be interesting too to see how Obama plays a role - he sounds very like he's going to be a very active campaigner as the race comes down to it, and I think that will be a big factor when he starts spinning his campaign mode near the end of the fight. I think Obama will be campaigning heavily for senate candidates too.

GrizzlyCow posted:Talking about Donald Trump is a ratings winner. Hillary crushing Sanders depresses ratings since that hurts the horse race/underdog narrative, a ratings winner. Basically, HRC is boring; Sanders is exciting; and Trump even more so. I meant in Sanders speech. He typically attacks her a lot.
