Clinton and Sanders face off in South Carolina
Democrats head to the polls on Saturday for the South Carolina primary, with FiveThirtyEight reporting Hillary Clinton has more than a 99 percent chance of winning the state.
Both Clinton and Bernie Sanders have spent recent weeks attempting to earn the support of black voters, who make up a large portion of South Carolina's registered Democrats. However, despite Sanders' efforts, the contingent has mainly stayed loyal to Clinton. "There's a history between African-Americans and the Clintons," Carneal McCoy of North Charleston said. "There were a lot of good times."
