Once upon a time, journalists were warned not to ‘bury the lede’. But in an era when the media is Pravda with snappier logos, the lede has to be buried in an unmarked grave most of the time. Take the story of Biden’s big blowout primary win.
Media headlines hype his 96% victory in the South Carolina primary. Fewer mention that it was a 4% turnout election.
I’ve said before that Biden had the DNC rig the primary calendar to favor him by putting South Carolina first and kicking out New Hampshire because he couldn’t lose in SC if he were dead.
And this primary proved it.
South Carolina secured Biden the nomination in the 2020 primaries. He paid multiple campaign visits there and spent six figures on ads in a state that was a sure thing to produce these kinds of big numbers.
And 96% (the current estimate) does sound like a lot. But it’s 96% of what? As it turns out, it’s 96% of 4%.
South Carolina saw only 4% voter turnout statewide with 131,870 ballots cast, the lowest turnout in the past three Democratic presidential preference primaries. In 2020, the state saw roughly 16% voter turnout and 12.6% turnout in 2016.
Upstate counties saw a turnout of around 2-3%
About 126,000 people (so far) cast their ballots for Joe Biden out of the 150,000 plus people who showed up.
Can’t you just feel the feverish enthusiasm?
And it wouldn’t be a Biden campaign event without indecipherable gibberish.
Shortly after the race was called, Biden phoned Rep. Jim Clyburn (D-S.C.) who was speaking to supporters at the South Carolina Democratic Party’s victory night event. Biden, who Clyburn put on speakerphone along with the microphone he was holding, expressed his thanks and asked about turnout.
The specifics of what he said were difficult for the audience to hear.
Considering the turnout numbers, that was probably safest.
Thanks Daniel, good statistical info!
IF SC allows same day voter registration changes,most of that remaining % 96% will be at the rep primary voting for nikki haley!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
A slither of black Democ-rats in South Carolina are as demented as Joe Bite-Me. Obviously, like likes like.
I think “the feverish enthusiasm” is more like a reaction to a cold sore. While there’s little doubt leftists plans to rig the election again for “I get pudding on Thursdays” Joe, I’m beginning to wonder if it’s possible for them cheat enough at the ballot box to do it. After 2020, I’ve learned not to discount ANY possibility, with fake water main breaks in Atlanta and somewhere in the neighborhood of 200,000 ballots trucked from NY to PA…but with EVERY American (well, other than elites) feeling the effects of the steal weekly in their wallets, enthusiasm is at an all time low for the head-sniffing grandpa.
They’ll either have to remove Trump from the ballot completely (which they’re trying to do), drop ‘Big Mike’ Obama into the equation or declare a national emergency of some kind so as to forego a national election “for the safety and security of the people”.
Maybe I’m wrong here, but it seems to me that cheating enough at the voting booth to make a difference for Biden this time around would be like me making a $1 Million deposit at my bank in singles…and 999,999 of them were counterfeit. The jinx would be up rather quickly.
Yeah, the Repubs have to beat the “margin of cheating”.
The Dems save the big cities like Philadelphia for last, so they know how many votes they need.
In all the stories about the Dem primaries they never mention who or if anyone is running against him. I think I know the reason for that.
Waste of time, considering that Biden will probably step down before the election.
More like fall down and break a hip.
All mouth and no mind Bidens like one of those Hollywood Wind Machines a Big Blowhard
The rest of the dem voters will be out in force for little nikki.
‘Aint’t’ this the truth. Watching news last evening, and I heard some coverage of it with how this was this big-blow out victory for Biden. The same section also had a short story of one voting place that had only one vote – the whole day.
‘Ain’t’ this the truth, and in the past the wise knew to fast avoid any mention of such a sad event like yesterday’s ‘victory’. Without saying it – one can believe more blacks may well not vote Democrat this next time than has been the case in many years. Biden (and the rest of the likely ones to represent the ‘team’ have what they once called box-office poison for the Hollywood star that needs a good script – and a box-office hit.
Another way to say that is less than 4% of the voters of SC voted for Ol’ Joe in the primary.
Its really kind of a debacle. Who else are the Dems going to run? Anyone with knowledge knows the policies have been a total and complete let down to the American people. Joe seems to be a legend in his own mind.
Must’ve been all the excitement!
Or all the excrement. Diaper Joe can’t even cross his girly legs without squishing.
As I drive around SC – DAILY – I’m overwhelmed with the “Biden/Harris” signs! Actually, I’m not even “whelmed”! The only signs I’ve seen usually have another word PRECEDING that and that word begins with an “F”! Now the Charleston area (where the DEMOcrats engaged in their slave trading) probably has some favorable signs! I’d imagine at least 3 to 4% of the people are in favor of Joe!
Trump will win big in GA in large part b/c of the black vote.
Here in SC, the mainstream media and affiliates barely mentioned the primary. I observe politics, and saw only 2 articles that mentioned voting dates for either party primary, in contrast to previous election years. My guess is the Democrats didn’t want turnout… and Republicans just barely have a ground game/get out and vote effort.
Maybe everyone should home in November and not vote at all. That would be funny.
Come on, man …
That wasn’t 4% turnout …
… That was a fat lady named Ruby running 50 ballots she filled out …
… through the machine about 2,600 times …
The rest are dyslexic criminals who thought they were voting for free pot …
😉
The only blowout he’ll ever experience is when he takes a dump in his pants.
That’s a daily experience for Alzheimer Joe.
