Original Note:
In SC's open primaries, all voters, including Democrats & Independents, can participate in Republican primaries. Saying "40% voted against Trump" includes these groups, making it misleading to claim 40% of Republicans did so, as the figure also counts non-Republican voters. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/who-can-vote-south-carolina-republican-primary-2024/ https://www.findlaw.com/voting/how-u-s--elections-work/what-are-the-different-types-of-primary-elections-0/open-vs--closed-primary-elections-in-the-u-s-.html
