Sixty-four percent said the debates were an important factor for them; just 34 percent said they were not. Gingrich won standing ovations in both debates while Romney often struggled - and at one point received a smattering of boos for equivocating over how many years of his tax returns he would release.
CNN reports that exit polls show 38% of S.C. voters supported Newt Gingrich, 29% forMitt Romney, 17% for Rick Santorum, and 15% for Rep. Ron Paul. See All Exit Polls ›
