The South Carolina Democratic Primary polls close at 7 p.m. Eastern. We’ll cover the results as they come in.

If Bernie wins or comes close, that would be devastating to the #NeverBernie Democrats. It will be interesting if Operation Chaos, whereby Republicans cross over in the open primary to vote Bernie, helps narrow the gap.
