Occupy protesters were among those on the rope line at Rick Santorum's South Carolina election night party at The Citadel military college in Charleston, where the candidate faced another round of glitter bombing directly following his speech to the crowd.

Summersville Patch reports:

Members of the Occupy Charleston group joined in with chants of "Rick, Rick, Rick, bigot, bigot, bigot" and singing "Santorum, Santorum, you're a bigot." As police escorted the group out, they shouted about Jesus preaching love.

The police escorted many members of the movement off-campus and would not allow them to retrieve their vehicles parked there. But there were no arrests or incidents.
