Donald Trump wins south carolina

 Only about 75% in, but it's been called already. Trump wins with 60.2% of the vote, vs Haley getting 39.1% of the vote. 

This is significant because it basically shows the extent to which Nikki Haley can properly challenge Trump. This is Haley's home state. This is her last best hope. If she can't pull off victory here, she can't pull off a victory. She might as well drop out. Will she? Who knows? It depends, is she still in it to win it or just offer a principled alternative for protest voters? That remains to be seen.

But yeah, pack it up, it's over. Trump got the nomination locked up as far as I'm concerned. We need to rely on the legal system trying him for his 91 felonies or some McDonalds overindulgence induced health problem developing to remove him from the process at this point.
