S.C. Republican's New Plan Is Sure To Enrage Establishment Dems
Establishment Dems are hoping that Bloomberg can buy the primary since Biden seems to have failed them, and they refuse to accept Sanders as their candidate. So they have been rallying behind Bloomberg and even the MSM is helping to snub Sanders by bashing the Vermont Dem. But it appears Sanders is getting some help from an unlikely source. South Carolina Republicans.
"Republicans in South Carolina have launched “Operation Chaos 2020” and other grassroots efforts by urging fellow Trump supporters to switch sides and vote for Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) in the South Carolina primaries so that he would clinch the presidential nomination. Obviously, this has been motivated by the fact that a Sanders candidacy would cause a serious divide in the Democratic Party that would likely benefit President Trump’s reelection.
“We are calling for specifically for Republicans and Trump supporters all across South Carolina to turn out and vote for Sen. Bernie Sanders in the Democratic primary on Saturday,” Stephen Brown of Operation Chaos 2020 said..."
"In response, Greenville County Democratic Party accused the groups of voter interference and undermining the electoral process.
“In calling for voters to select a specific candidate for the purpose of disrupting Saturday’s primary, Operation Chaos 2020 is engaging in interference in a free and fair election,” said Kate Franch, chair of the Greenville County Democratic Party. “They are undermining and dishonoring the very right to franchise that they claim to want to protect.”
“Elections are not games,” Franch continued. “Democrats believe in the right to directly choose our representatives and welcome any voter to participate in the democratic process we champion. Every voter should carefully select the candidate who most closely reflects his or her values with the knowledge that that candidate can ultimately win the seat. Your vote is your voice – it should not be wasted or debased.”
"Biden has the support of 27 percent of likely Democratic primary voters in South Carolina, Monday’s NBC News/Marist poll shows, with Sanders following close behind at 23 percent. The difference between the two candidates falls within the poll’s margin of error of 6 percentage points."
Bloomberg is not going to be on the ticket in South Carolina, but if this operation succeeds it would definitely be the end for Biden. The Biden Campaign is counting on South Carolina to give him back the momentum that he has lost during the primary race. But with Republicans and many Dems backing Sanders, Biden might as well call it quits now.
