one place could be the deciding factor in decision 2008

In 2004 Greensville,SC was the deciding state that led to George Bush havingt enough votes for his nomination and now in 2008 it is looking to be the deciding county in SC once more, but not for the Republicans but instead for the Democrats who have been having a close nomination campaign between Barack Obama and Fmr. first lady Hilary Clinton. This nomination is very close and with the Republicans having their nominee since February 29th this could be a challenge for whoever the Democratic nominee seeing as McCain has been campaiging for almost an entire month not for a nomination but for the presidency. As of March 22nd Hilary was behind Obama with 1251 and Obama at 1408.

The closeness with which this election has been going is very similar to the election of 1876 in which votes in SC were disputed. In the end Rutherford B Hayes won the Election beating Tilden by one vote. 185 to 184.
