Hillary Clinton will win the South Carolina Democratic primary, CNN projects, proving the strength of her diverse Southern firewall and restoring her position as the undisputed front-runner in her party’s race for the White House heading into Super Tuesday.
The victory is Clinton’s strongest yet in the 2016 primary contests. She narrowly won the Iowa caucuses and was trounced by Bernie Sanders in the New Hampshire primary. Clinton won the Nevada caucuses decisively by five percentage points.
Clinton’s win Saturday night was fueled by strong support from minority voters, giving her campaign a strong jolt heading into Super Tuesday, when 11 states hold Democratic primaries or caucuses. She hopes to use those results to run up the delegate count against Sanders.
