Just after Greene’s surprising win in the South Carolina Democratic Primary in June, DeMint posted a similar 58% to 21% lead.

Fifty-one percent (51%) of South Carolina voters have a Very Unfavorable opinion of Greene, while just four percent (4%) view him Very Favorably. Because of the heavy media coverage of his unorthodox candidacy, Greene is surprisingly well-known for a political newcomer.

DeMint, who is seeking a second six-year term, is viewed Very Favorably by 35% and Very Unfavorably by 16%.
