Former Vice President Joe Biden Projected to Win South Carolina Democratic Primary

GETS MORE THAN 50 PERCENT OF THE VOTE

(FOX NEWS) – Former Vice President Joe Biden will win the South Carolina Democratic presidential primary, Fox News can project — a crucial first victory that gives Biden’s struggling campaign a much-needed boost ahead of Super Tuesday.

Fox News projects that Biden will win the state’s primary decisively, reflecting earlier polls that suggested he had a significant lead over Sen. Bernie Sanders, buoyed by his support among African-American voters.

The win could help Biden reset the race after Sanders racked up wins in New Hampshire and Nevada and essentially tied the Iowa caucuses.

The results had led to speculation that Sanders may soon be unstoppable on his path to the Democratic nomination, as well as questions over whether Biden could resurrect his campaign after the former front-runner failed to win any of the first three states on the calendar.

Sanders, meanwhile, is currently in second place in South Carolina, ahead of billionaire Tom Steyer.
