Fifty-five percent of the vote went to Obama, while Sen. Hillary Clinton and former Sen. John Edwards earned 27 and 18 percent, respectively.
In his victory speech, Obama said that the fight for South Carolina had not only produced a personal victory but also progress over the divisive politics of the past.
Although Edwards was born in South Carolina and won the state in his 2004 presidential bid, he seemed like a fading force on Saturday. He did win decisively among one group — white males — and vowed to go on after four consecutive losses.
