some encouraging news out of South Carolina [View all]

Metrics are about social media buzz rather than regular polling, but I like the message.

Two nice charts (sorry, I couldn't figure out how to place the actual figures here, but here are the links)
#1 shows that Pete has second highest mentions of all the Dem candidates in South Carolina. Biden is well ahead, at #1, but Biden's (and Warren's) numbers have been decreasing, while Pete's and Sanders' numbers have been increasing.

#2 shows that Pete has "higher positive sentiments" than any other Dem candidate in South Carolina
