South Carolina, AP, 28 February 2016 – Hillary Clinton overwhelmed Bernie Sanders in Saturday’s South Carolina primary, drawing staggering support from the state’s black Democrats and putting her in a strong position as the race barrels toward crucial multi-state contests on Tuesday.
Mrs. Clinton led by 48 points with nearly all precincts counted – provided an important boost for her campaign. She won the support of nearly 9 in 10 black voters, crucial Democratic backers who abandoned her for Obama in 2008.
 “Tomorrow this campaign goes national,” she said. “We are not taking anything, and we are not taking anyone, for granted.” Taken together, 865 Democratic delegates are up for grabs in the March 1 Super Tuesday contests in 11 states and American Samoa.
Clinton’s campaign hopes her strong showing in South Carolina foreshadows similar outcomes in states like Georgia, Alabama, Tennessee and Virginia that vote Tuesday and have large minority populations.
