Rat Fuckery in South Carolina
Sorry, folks, but there was serious, and I mean serious ratfuckery going on in South Carolina, where the latest straw polls had Biden up by just 20%. With less than 10% reporting in, they had him up by as much as 36%. Someone'e either stuffing the ballot boxes for Biden or kinking the hose on Bernie.

When Biden came in second in Nevada, a few mainstream media outlets called his performance strong even though Sanders more than doubled him.
Now that Biden won with some 48 percent of the vote in South Carolina and more than doubled Sanders, will those same media outlets say Sanders' performance was strong even though he scored one more delegate than he did in 2016?
Going into the SC primary, Biden was at less than 40 percent.
It appears that his boost came at the expense of the other moderates.
The corporate Democrats might have just found the candidate to consolidate under to take on Sanders.
I think there was some ballot box stuffing going on. Take Iowa. Just yesterday during the SC Primary, the Iowa Democrat Party decided to award Buttigieg even more delegates, 14, even tho he and Sanders both finished with 26.2% of the vote. Some precincts were pledging more delegates than they actually had to give. The Iowa Dem's response to the vote? "We don't have time to fix all our mistakes."
So, yeah, the fix is in.
