South Carolina Polls Open; Florida Looms


The nasty debates are over, its time for South Carolina Democrats to vote! Polls opened this morning, with record turnout predicted by elections officials.

The latest RCP Poll(Real Clear Politics)has it Obama 38%; Clinton 27%; Edwards 19%; Uncommitted 15%. RCP is an average of several recent polls from other media sources.

While South Carolina votes today, many candidates on the GOP side will be stumping in Florida.


The latest RCP poll there shows a very tight race for Tuesday's balloting: McCain 26.1%; Romney 25.6%; Giuliani 18%; Huckabee 14%; Paul 5%; Undecided 11%.

Democrats have a "beauty contest" in Florida, with no delegates at stake. Still, a win can mean momentum going into Super Tuesday, February 5th. The latest RCP Poll has it: Clinton 47%; Obama 28%; Edwards 13%; 12% Undecided.


I will be in Florida as of Sunday January 27, with previews of Tuesday's vote. Tell your friends to come visit: www.markcurtismedia.blogspot.com.


South Carolina results will be posted later today!
