Biden dominates, Sanders slips and other takeaways from the South Carolina primary

In addition, Sanders is opting out of attending the Bridge Crossing Jubilee in Selma, Alabama, which commemorates Bloody Sunday on March 7, 1965, that lead to the passage of the 1965 Voting Rights Act. Alabama's primary is part of Super Tuesday.

Prior to dropping out, Steyer had seen an increase in polling among black voters. He also received several high profile endorsements in the state, including Johnnie Cordero, chair of South Carolina's Black Caucus.Black voters rally behind Biden, Biden won with a whopping 60% share of the votes cast by African Americans in South Carolina, who accounted for more than half of the ballots in the Palmetto State.

That voting bloc, who made up about a quarter of the votes cast in the 2016 Democratic primary, could prove key to making Biden competitive against Sanders onOn the other hand, black voters in Saturday’s primary represented a lower percentage than those who turned out in 2016, when they made up 61% of the South Carolina vote. If that indicates lower turnout can be expected from black voters moving forward, that could be grim news for the Biden campaign.

Warren has continued to plateau as the primary continues. The Massachusetts Senator underperformed in New Hampshire after placing third in Iowa. She also didn't do well in Nevada. Despite having electric debate performances in the past two weeks, Warren has yet to find momentum at the polls.
