An endorsement from former President Obama and House Majority Whip Jim Clyburn in reliably blue Columbia, South Carolina was not enough to push the city’s Democratic mayoral candidate over the finish line.
Republican mayoral candidate Daniel Rickenmann, a businessman and Columbia city council member, defeated Democrat Tameika Isaac Devine by a margin of 52% to 48% on Tuesday night in Columbia which sits in a county that President Biden carried by almost 40 points in 2020.
Former President Obama, according to Washington Free Beacon, released an audio message in support of Devine and the former president carried the city’s county by 29 points in 2008 and 33 points in 2012.
Rep. Clyburn, one of the most prominent Democrats in both the South and the Black community who many believe saved President Biden’s flailing 2020 campaign with his endorsement, also endorsed Devine.

“I dont believe that either. “
Pedo Joe won by 40 points last November? and loses in a blue city? The statistical gap is just not possible. The Dem cheat team didnt even bother to concentrate on this one.
If he won that section by 40% that would be a great place to look for vote fraud.

Pull the other one.
Looks like the Columbia Dems didn't have any money budgeted for their ballot factories this go-around...
Has she screamed “racism” yet?
See my post #24 [Columbia is the county seat of Richland].
Incredible describes the situation very well.
I kind of half read twitter feeds from a few local liberal nuts. People I met in former jobs mostly. Talk about programmed.
Columbia is 54% white and 40% black. I think some black males voted for the white guy counter-balancing the leftist women
There’s zero leverage for Democrats to convince Joe Manchin to vote yes on build back better bill. The only thing they have left is to offer him a lot of pork for his state.
That certainly didn’t help her.
