In the Democratic primary held on Feb. 3, results began to come in soon after, and nearly all votes had been reported by 11 p.m. South Carolina does not have voter registration by party, but the small share (about 4 percent) of voters who participated in the Democratic primary may not vote in the Republican primary. Voter registration deadlines were in January. The state offered nine days of early voting, and those with valid excuses were allowed to vote absentee by mail. More than 217,000 voters had already cast their ballots as of Friday — 30 percent of the total number of votes in the 2016 Republican primary. Nikki Haley, who served as the governor of South Carolina from 2011 to 2017, is the only major challenger to former president Donald J. Trump who remains in the race.

☆ Warner Bros. Discovery posts a much narrower loss than a year ago
▼ + stars: | 2024-02-23 | by ( Chris Isidore | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +1 min

Discovery is no exception – and though it lost far less money in the final quarter of 2023 than in the same period a year earlier, its loss was still wider than expected. The company, which owns CNN among other media properties, reported a net loss of $400 million, down from the $2.1 billion it lost a year earlier. That brought its full-year loss to $3.1 billion, just less than half of the $7.4 billion it lost in 2022. But its loss of 16 cents a share in the quarter was worse than the 10-cent-a-share loss forecast. That was also an improvement from the $217 million loss it reported a year earlier.

☆ Moderna posts surprise quarterly profit even as Covid vaccines sales plummet
▼ + stars: | 2024-02-22 | by ( Annika Kim Constantino | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +4 min

Moderna on Thursday posted a surprise quarterly profit, in part boosted by deferred revenue, even as the company saw slumping sales from its Covid vaccine, its only marketable product. The biotech company booked fourth-quarter sales of $2.81 billion, with sales of its Covid shot dropping 43% from the same period a year ago. That includes charges related to the company's efforts to scale back manufacturing of its Covid shot and write-downs of unused doses of the vaccine. Still, the deferred revenue boosted Moderna's full-year Covid vaccine sales to $6.7 billion, an amount the company first unveiled in January. It booked $18 billion in revenue in 2022 and expects sales from the shot to drop even further in 2024.

☆ New blood test that screens for Alzheimer’s may be a step closer to reality, study suggests

Alzheimer’s disease, a brain disorder that affects memory and thinking skills, is the most common type of dementia, according to the National Institutes of Health. “A blood test being negative speeds up the investigation for other causes of the symptoms and this is just as important,” Ashton said. Isaacson, who has researched blood biomarkers in people with no or minimal cognitive complaints, likened testing blood samples for signs of Alzheimer’s disease to how people undergo routine blood tests for high cholesterol. It is possible that currently available treatments for Alzheimer’s disease would work better in those diagnosed early in this way,” he said. The combination of a simple screening test with an effective treatment for Alzheimer’s disease would have a dramatic impact for individuals and for society.”

He has ensured this with the Ram Temple,” said Nilanjan Mukhopadhyay, an expert in Hindu nationalism and author of a book on Modi. Modi’s Hindu nationalist party is expected to once again exploit religion for political gain in the upcoming national elections in April or May and secure power for a third consecutive term. The mosque was demolished by Hindu mobs in December 1992, sparking nationwide riots that killed more than 2,000 people, mostly Muslims. That fraught history is still an open wound for many Muslims, and some say the temple is the biggest political testament yet to Hindu supremacy. Modi has released postage stamps on Ram Temple, and live screenings of the ceremony are planned across the country.

Johnson has been under intense pressure from Republican hard-liners, who see the new speaker’s dealmaking with Democrats as anathema to their conservative agenda. And overriding their concerns to pass the short-term funding package with help from the majority of Democrats does little to help his case. Moreover, he argued, working with Democrats and brokering a deal – even if it’s not the one he wants – is necessary given their shrinking majority. Come Monday, their majority will shrink to 217 – the smallest Republican majority in the history of Congress – as Rep. Bill Johnson of Ohio resigned to accept a job as a university president. “Here we are again, with House Democrats once again providing the votes to avert a costly shutdown.

The Ram Mandir's opening Monday would fulfill a decadeslong Hindu nationalist pledge that is expected to resonate with voters during the upcoming national election expected in April or May. The narrow roads have given way to four-lane pilgrim route, including the newly developed 13-kilometer (8-mile) Ram Path leading to the temple. At least two head priests from a Hindu sect have refused to go the opening ceremony, saying consecrating an unfinished temple goes against Hindu scriptures. And volunteers from Modi’s party and other Hindu nationalist groups are going door to door, distributing religious flags and pamphlets. Many others shared Bhatia's feelings about the temple's opening.

Johnson cut a deal with Schumer to back a top-line funding total key to preventing a government shutdown. “A small group of hard-right extremists seem dead set on making a shutdown a reality,” Schumer said Tuesday. “House and Senate negotiators worked hard to reach an agreement on top-line funding levels for the current fiscal year.

☆ Job openings slide to 8.7 million in October, well below estimate, to lowest level since March 2021
▼ + stars: | 2023-12-05 | by ( Jeff Cox | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +3 min

Job openings tumbled in October to their lowest in 2½ years, a sign the historically tight labor market could be loosening. The number was well below the 9.4 million estimate from Dow Jones and the lowest since March 2021. Federal Reserve policymakers watch the report, known as the Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey, closely for signs of labor slack. While job openings fell dramatically, total hires only nudged lower while layoffs and separations were modestly higher. Declines in job openings were widespread by industry.
