South Carolina Primary Results Open Thread

In 2016 Hillary Clinton beat Bernie Sander (73% to 26%) in the South Carolina primary.

After returning to Miami last month from a work trip in China, Osmel Martinez Azcue found himself in a frightening position: he was developing flu-like symptoms, just as coronavirus was ravaging the country he had visited. Under normal circumstances, Azcue said he would have gone to CVS for over-the-counter medicine and fought the flu on his own, but this time was different.
