Well, so much for that. The flippable Romney states are North Carolina, Arizona, and maybe Georgia.
South Carolina?
South Carolina? How? Whites are outgrowing Blacks in that state, and it is far less educated and urbanized. It's by FAR the best fit for Trump of all the states on the Atlantic.
Then why do polls show it close and why do demographics back this up? If Hillary's lead grows to 8 or 9 by election day, South Carolina will be flipping.
It's got a lot of white educated voters, plus a sizable black electorate, so I agree that it has the potential to flip. If Clinton is going to put an office in a red state, South Carolina should come in ahead of Utah.
