Former Vice President Joe Biden's lead shrank in his firewall state of South Carolina, though he still holds an 8-point edge, according to an East Carolina University (ECU) poll released Friday.
Biden gets the support of 28 percent of likely South Carolina primary voters, followed by Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) with 20 percent and businessman Tom Steyer with 14 percent. No other candidate breaks double digits in the poll ahead of the Feb. 29 primary in the Palmetto State.
The poll comes as Biden leans on South Carolina to reverse his fortunes after fourth- and fifth-place showings in Iowa and New Hampshire, respectively, but his allies have started to fear the poor results could follow him there, too.
Biden's support dropped 9 points since the last ECU poll, which was conducted right before Iowa's caucuses. Meanwhile, Sanders, who garnered the most votes in each of the first two states, has surged in South Carolina from 14 percent earlier this month, surpassing Steyer for second place.

Kommiez iz the bezt!
Why does anyone believe polls? They are such propaganda.
Put Joe in the day room, give him his Xanax and let him watch “Matlock’’ reruns.
I thought it said Bidens head shrinks
He so in trouble. How’s he gonna stay out of jail? They’re not just rearranging deck chairs. They’re smashing each other over their heads with them.
Bernie’ll come out next with bandages - he can’t be controlled by them.
They really must think there’s a way into the White House
Nancy Ps been awfully quiet this week.
“though he still holds an 8-point edge...”
Yeah, ok.
“ Put Joe in the day room, give him his Xanax and let him watch “Matlock’’ reruns.”
‘C’mon, Man! He’s Opie’s dad. He’s the guy- was the sheriff. Andy. Yeah. Andy Mayberry. That’s the guy. C’mon, Man!’
Go home, Joe. The bloom is off the rose, as shall become all too apparent in the coming weeks.
Jeb Bush learned his lesson the hard way in 2016 - don’t face the Big Dog in the race if you do not have the necessary energy and resourcefulness to fully defend yourself and avoid unforced errors, while carrying the fight to your real opponent.
Mike Bloomberg is coming for you, Joe. And he can commit a LOT more money and effort to the objective.
What would he be in jail for?
The Democrat establishment is signaling that Gropin’ Joe is out and Bloomberg is now their man.
How can Bloomberg be the man, of the party which wants to get rid of the big money in politics?
Ooh. You gotta get caught up on the news. You’re trusting Paul Ryan’s Fox reports for your info.
Actually, Presidential polling data should be banned as it can be skewed to promote one candidate or party. It has almost taken the form of electioneering, which involves persuading voters in a political campaign.
The first 3 words of the headline made me think he has a team of psychiatrists looking after him.
LOL! Where do you get that malarky? Listen mug Joe is a right guy ,get me? Now scram, see? ( I love that 1930’s gangster lingo from the old movies of the day) :-)
It’s really amusing. Check out Gregg Gutfeld sat night (10 Eastern?). Tom shulue (sp?) nails the impression. Biden and Schiff.
Reminds me of Ali in one of his fights with Frazer. Ali was winning in the middle rounds and he started taunting. He said It’s over Joe you might as well go home. It drove Frazer crazy and he started getting sloppy so Ali took advantage.
‘How can Bloomberg be the man, of the party which wants to get rid of the big money in politics?’
The party that has all access tottillions from big money donors doesn’t want to get rid of big money in politics. They want to SAY they want to get rid of the big money in politics?’
