south carolina is south carolina. one of my friends in life was the late lee atwater, a unique guy that came out of that south carolina political culture. very hard-hitting. very different than new hampshire. and i imagine everything is up for grabs there. donald trump has a lot of support. so do a lot of people and they'll be at it in earnest. >> you were looking at the map early ea lot of evangelical voters there for ted cruz and even donald trump who has been playing well. >> if the other mainstream candidates start to do better that could help ted cruz. because trump and rubio and kasich competing for your mainstream republicans. it is a fascinating state. caden knows his from living there and kevin knows this from the romney campaigns. used to be governor carol campbell. a lee atwater guy. delivered the state for george h.w. bush. it is more of an establishment, reliable republican state like caden says. you have nikki haley. mark santon. you could do -- he used ed td the republican legislature's budget saying th

the idea was to win there, come to south carolina and win with these voters in south carolina. right now, again, these numbers could change. this is the second wave of exit poll data. donald trump leading with white evangelicals. we can look at it this way. there's a college/non-college divide. roughly splits the electorate in half. those with college degrees, marco rubio is winning among them. trump and cruz right behind them. those without college degrees, trump is winning big, rubio falls back farther. there is also this ideology, the breakdown, how people are describing themselves tonight. again, 82% saying they're very or -- there we go. 82% saying very or somewhat conservative. look at this. see among very conservative, ted cruz is soing whkoing doing wha do, 40% of the vote. ted cruz -- it's supposed to happen. it's not moving. this is what happens on election night. the ted cruz number drops and drops. you get down to moderates, he's in single digits. ted cruz's support is concentrated there. donald trump meanwhile, he's in the high 20s, low 30s every group. >> on those

after south carolina, he goes quickly. super tuesday is coming, and there is a lot at stake.>> you have to make your mark while you are year. >>> we are talking issues, and i know that you support hillary clinton, and you support marco rubio. haley endorsement. >>> the governor coming in after several others in the house, you are seeing the next generation of republicans getting in the field and supporting marco rubio. as we move away from south carolina, we are like a hurricane that sits over us for a while and then it moves on. it will continue to do that, and the fight will continue. where we land will be a long way away. and donald trump may be the basis of the republican party, but that is a long way away. it may end up being ted cruz or marco rubio, but we will see, and we need south carolina leading the effort, putting us forward. i think that governor haley is seen on the national stage brings a positive message, and rubio and continue to help. >>> and hillary clinton has her work cut out for her. >> politics is a

first in south carolina. he has a strong south carolina team aon the ground. people know the lay of the land. he does have to do well. there's no question. as much as it's make or break for bush, it is for rubio. what we need to start seeing happening if there's a prayer for a real competition to the nomination that isn't cruz or trump is a winnowing of the field before march 15th. you continue cobbling enough delegates to get through to share nominations, but once march 15th happens, if there's not a winning of the field, trump or cruz win the table. >> let's talk about ted cruz for a moment right now. ted cruz caught in the middle of rubio and donald trump. ted cruz has been fighting both these men quite hard and fighting for evangelical votes there. south carolina was a state i think he thought he could win. he thought he could win a lot of march 1st states. he needs what tomorrow? >> he needs a win, and some of the polls have suggested that that's not entirely out of the realm of possibility, or at least a close second. he needs to do well. he needs to do

we set up shop in south carolina .epublican candidates have already fanned out across the state for the primaries. it takes place 10 days from now. there are storylines of plenty from last night. but let's start with billion acting of the granite state, the ballot box. after his victory, donald trump arrives for his rallies two hours north and west here in clemson. his rivals contemplate an election calendar that poses a serious challenge for anyone that wants to stop him. mark walks through that calendar. mark: we have a debate next saturday in south carolina. the primary is one week later. as of now, republican polls still show trump, even before his big new hampshire win, a big lead. there are a lot of caucuses on february 23. the candidates go to houston for a debate. that is march 1 when 11 states cast their votes. , the a few more contests big winner take all states like florida and ohio are open market 15 -- march 15. here is a question, taking all of this into account and recognizing there is a little bit of a

a flap for ted cruz in south carolina.inst marco rubio, against hillary clinton, and new ad spoofing her in that office space scene, that famous scene where they beat up the copy machine. in the cruz version, it's hillary clinton beating up her e-mail server. so cruz really going on the offensive here. going on offense, i should say, in south carolina. hoping to sort of make some moves and mobilize the evangelical voters around him. >> speaking of the evangelicals, he has been open about his faith on the trail and ran this very personal ad on his religious beliefs in the iowa campaign. but so far, he hasn't been able to close the deal with evangelical voters. what is the campaign's strategy? why do thaw think it hasn't worked so far, at least as well as they hoped it would? >> the campaign is trying to go after evangelical voters and faith-based communities because it does want to take away some of those votes from ted cruz. marco rubio has a unique personal story when it comes to religion. he yoefs as a roman catholic, bu

we are going to win in south carolina. carolina and beyond. nikole: you can hear bernie sanders touting his huge victory over hillary clinton last night while donald trump defeated his gop rivals. coming in second for the republicans, john kasich, ted cruz took third and jeb bush and marco rubio not far behind. chris christie trailed the pack and plans to head home. he says he will wait out the final results today after making -- before making a decision about the future of this campaign. allyson: nikole killion live in new hampshire. geoff: thank you. we will have a final thought on the primary frommar -- from mark sandoval -- marc sandolow. allyson: and aly myles, do we have to live right now? geoff: aly myles has been in anderson. box campaign. they're filled with eight bags and each bag goes to a child in anderson county. they may not have food over the weekend and a lot of the students will get free or reduced lunch while at school, but when the weekend rolls around, they need food. some of the kids won't have anything to eat. united way

south carolina is next.tell obviously it's a huge evangelical community, but most of march is down here. the color speaks for itself. this is evangelical bible belt for ted cruz who unlike huckabee and santorum who won iowa he has an organization, he has money. so now you have a essentially he goes at it with trump in south carolina. the question is kasich will come in with a little momentum. can he play here. the bush family now. this was critical to george bush after john mccain beat him. it will be interesting to see jeb bush on the road with his brother, but jeb bush can't afford to come in third or fourth again. he needs a break through moment. so the evangelicals are critical for ted cruz and a slice is important to marco rubio. >> remind our viewers what happened in south carolina four years ago on the republican side. >> four years ago on the republican side, newt gingrich beat mitt romney here. mitt romney along the coast here, and newt gingrich won everywhere else because santorum didn't have the r

>> listen, it's south carolina, south carolina, south carolina. south carolina is playing its role.ean had a great idea in 2006 of bringing a state with a large african-american population into the early state window. and south carolina was that state. and we played a role in 2008 and really helped to decide where the presidential race was going. and i think this time around, south carolina will play a very similar role. here in this state in 2008, 56% of those folks who voted in a democratic primary were african-american. and 61% of the voters in the democratic primary were women. so, the key demographic, chris, is african-american women. and i think that is where the secretary clinton and senator sanders have to have a laser like focus. they have to focus on african-american women. senator sanders has to convince these women that he is the person, the best person to carry the water on the issues that are important to them. health care, education, you know, criminal justice. >> and how does the black lives matter movement play into all this? >> well, i think the black lives matter

even before victory in south carolina. they said we won in new hampshire by wide margins, we're leading nation wide. but for some reason people think he's going to trip and fall and everything is going to disappear. if this were any other candidates, they would already be seen as the air apparent to the republican nomination. and after south carolina and after new hampshire, he is undoubtedly the republican frontrunner in this race. so, it's not clear what state someone else is going to knock him off in. >> and in south carolina. the party there is over physically. but metaphorically it will continue on. did i mention we're live covering the election results and we don't yet know who came in second in south carolina. for that reason, you need to stay with us for hours. we know who came in fourth, a distant fourth. that was jeb bush and perhaps, one of the most memorable moments of the night was the emotional speech he gave after suspending his campaign. want to go to athena jones, she is at what was the bush campaign headq

republican already had their primary in south carolina. this has a little less suspense than many have had in the past. we're expecting a win by hillary clinton across the state. it remains interesting and remains competitive >>> certainly does. we should get the first numbers any moment. i think it is interesting to note that while this may not be a suspenseful race tonight, eyes are already on super tuesday a couple of days away where almost 1500 delegates are up for grabs. that's between 25 and 30% that will be pledged, some big states, and we will get a sense after super tuesday which candidates will be survivors in this long drawn-out political season. >> yes. by about march 15 is when florida ohio, we should know, and i say should because on the republican side we have what's turning into a much more interesting and competitive race, but certainly this is - tonight is going to be one of the determinants about the strength of bernie sanders versus hillary clinton. there was no particular surprise in the fact that we are expecting hill

i'm from south carolina. and good day, y'all, i'm andrea mitchell in washington. no matter how hard they run, they just can't catch up. donald trump far out in front in south carolina and hasn't made him any more cautious about insulting his rivals. >> senator cruz, he'll say anything. they lie and the reason i can say that nicely is that rubio called him a liar also. so once another guy called him a liar, it's easier for me to call him a liar, but really cruz does lie. i'm finding out all i can do is tell the truth. i tell the truth about iraq and, you know, i say we should have never been there and if bush is insulted, i don't care if he's insulted. what difference. it was a horrible mistake. >> and any moment we're expecting what the cruz campaign is calling a do-not-miss news conference with the texas senator. stand by for that as he prepares. this is hillary clinton who is feeling the bern. bernie sanders closing in on clinton's once comfortable lead in nevada. our team has the very latest from the candi
