A new Clemson University Palmetto statewide survey (release, results) of likely voters in South Carolina (conducted 8/20-24/07) finds:
- Among 400 Democrats, Sen. Hillary Clinton leads Sen. Barack Obama (26% to 16%) in a statewide primary; former Sen. John Edwards trails at 10%, former V.P. Al Gore at 8%. All other candidates receive less than 5% each, and 35% are undecided.
- Among 400 Republicans, former Sen. Fred Thompson edges out former Mayor Rudy Giuliani (19% to 18%) in a statewide primary; Sen. John McCain follows at 15%, former Gov. Mitt Romney at 11%, former Speaker Newt Gingrich at 9%, former Gov. Mike Huckabee at 6%. All other candidates receive less than 5% each, and 20% are undecided.
- Among Republicans, 36% are likely to vote to re-elect Lindsey Graham for Senate "regardless of who runs against him;" 37% will "depending on who runs against him;" 24% say they will vote for someone else.

Most recent poll I have in SC is ARG late August. Comparing the latest ARG and Clemson poll, they have Clinton over Obama by 11 and 10 respectively. ARG has Giuliani over Thompson by 5 whereas Clemson has Thompson up by 1. McCain is third in both polls. Conclusion is Clinton looks strong with Giuliani and Thompson close for 1st.
