so your premise is everybody who did not vote for Scott in primary was racist?
i forgot he ran unapposed.
but if he had been opposed, he would have still won with a lot of white voters.

Where did you get that impression?
And my apologies, I was reading up on his House of Reps elections.
Scott was appointed, not elected to the Senate
quote:
On December 17, 2012, South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley announced she would appoint Scott to replace retiring Senator Jim DeMint
So he got the advantage of running as an incumbent before ever winning the office

He didn't run unopposed for the Senate. He was appointed, not originally elected, by the governor because he was a minority:

On December 17, 2012, South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley announced she would appoint Scott to replace retiring Senator Jim DeMint
quote:
"It is important to me, as a minority female, that Congressman Scott earned this seat, he earned this seat for the person that he is. He earned this seat with the results he has shown."
