Turnout in Winn for Saturday’s Presidential Preference Primary was light, with only 328 voters combined: going to the polls, voting early and voting absentee.

Donald Trump was the clear Republican favorite with 295 (93%) Republican votes (a 17.6% turnout) while Joe Biden was the clear Democratic favorite with 78 (72%) Democrat votes (an 8.5% turnout). Trump polled slightly higher here than statewide where he won 90% of the votes in a 19% Republican turnout. Biden fared notably worse here than statewide where he polled 86% in only a 14% turnout.

The names of other candidates appeared on the ballot although they may have withdrawn from the national contest. Several of them received some local voter approval. For the Republicans, Ron DeSantis garnered 2 votes while Nikki Haley received 4. On the Democratic ticket, Stephen Lyons got 3 votes, Dean Phillips got 5 and Marianne Williamson had 8.

One post on Saturday’s did count when Republican voters in the District 31C area cast votes for the Republican State Central Committee. Locally, Lisa Tarpley Price outpolled Rhett Edwards by a margin of 90 to 19. But in the overall district, Edwards won the post with a percentage win of 60% to 40%. Turnout was 17%.
