New polls show Democratic front-runner Hillary Clinton opening wide leads in the early voting states of Nevada and South Carolina.


Fifty percent of likely Democratic caucus-goers in Nevada support Clinton, CNN/ORC International pollsters found. Nevada is host to the first Democratic debate on Tuesday in Las Vegas.

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) is 16 points behind Clinton, at 34 percent. Sanders has garnered attention recently for closing in on Clinton in Iowa and surpassing her in New Hampshire.

Vice President Joe Biden takes 12 percent support in Nevada. Biden has come in third in several other state polls as he considers entering the Democratic race.

Clinton has a massive lead in South Carolina, thought to be integral to a potential Biden bid. The former secretary of State is supported by 49 percent of likely primary voters there.

I hope she can lay out her plans for helping America recover from the destructive games of the republican party.

I don't care about personality clashes which is what the media hopes will happen.
