As should be obvious, the only reason these races were polled, as was the case for other races out of this poll, is to give an excuse to write a story where there is no story.  It's sort of telling what the point was when in the Superintendent of Education race, they trumpeted the Republican having only a ten point lead (45-35) as an indicator of a competitive race.

I suppose ten points is more competitive than twenty.

Look at those racist-homophobic Republicans supporting Tim Scott and Lindsay Graham.

They'd even vote for you if you had an (R) beside your name.

Tim Scott has almost 60%. I wonder if he's getting more support from black voters, even if its just a little bit. With South Carolina's electorate in order to get 60% as a Republican you have to get >80% of whites.
