It took less than a half hour for President Trump to be declared the winner of the South Carolina primary. It was an easy roll to victory with the former president easily defeating former Gov. Nikki Haley in her own home state. The race was called by major networks shortly after the polls closed at 7 pm.
There are 50 delegates at stake. How they are apportioned is a bit tricky. Trump has a lead of 25 to 30 points in most polls, positioning him to capture the 29 at-large delegates that go to the statewide winner. The remaining 21 delegates are divided among the state’s seven congressional districts. The winner in each district gets three delegates – and Trump has a good chance of winning all seven congressional districts.
The next primary is Tuesday, in Michigan.
