With 99.9% of the votes counted it looks like Rubio came in 2nd by 1000 votes. Amazing, he got the endorsement of all the leading Republicans in the state and couldn’t get over the finish line.
Amazing that a non-politician (Trump) essentially ran the whole state in every demographic. SC was Cruz’s firewall with all the evangelicals. He pulled the Marjoe and came up short.

I looked at the congressional districts and it looks like Trump will win all the delegates. Rubio has one county in Columbia, the 2nd district but Trump makes up the difference in the other counties in that district, Lexington, Aiken and Barnwell. Same in the 1st district, Charleston, Rubio has Charleston and Trump has the lead in Berkeley & Beuford, the other 1st district counties so he takes the district. Trump has all the other counties. I hope it works that way.

Rubio had the endorsements Nikki and other GOPe politicians. Trump had Palin and a nod from Franklin Graham which I am sure helped tremendously with the evangelicals. Ted had Beck and his holier than thou attitude. We are all sinners.
