8:27 PM: And there you have it. The AP calls it for Nikki Haley.
8:23 PM: One of the most interesting patterns in the SC-GOV Republican primary has been the fact that national Republicans — especially the would-be presidential contenders — have almost all lined up behind Nikki Haley. Even Gov. Pawlenty rather feebly got behind her just this afternoon. But in state, it’s really true that the great bulk of the Republican establishment has been against her. Not just supporting someone else, but seemingly against her.
8:16 PM: Only 26% of voters reporting. But I think Rep. Bob Inglis (R-SC) is probably going to have find a new line of work. Even with a quarter of the vote in, a 72% – 28% is a steep climb.
8:04 PM: Getting our first results in from South Carolina. Nikki Haley way out in front so far, but only just over 10% in.
