Joe Biden Leads, But Tom Steyer Has Pulled Into Second In SC. How Serious Is Steyer's Polling Surge?

Former Vice President Joe Biden has a double digit lead over his presidential primary opponents in South Carolina, with Tom Steyer leapfrogging top-tier candidates for the second place spot in the early voting state, according to a new poll.

Biden has 36 percent support in South Carolina, a 21-point lead over Steyer, according to a Fox News poll released Thursday.

Steyer jumped to second, at 15 percent, according to the poll. It’s an 11point increase for the billionaire philanthropist since October and solidifies his place on next week’s debate stage. []
