Former President Donald Trump enjoyed an unsurprising victory with Lancaster County Republicans, beating out Nikki Haley and Perry Johnson who have since ended their bid for president, but seem to maintain a number of die-hards as Trump continues to cement his prospective Republican Party nomination.
Meanwhile, incumbent President Joe Biden expectedly trounced Minnesota Congressman Dean Philips — who ended his campaign in March — among county voters for the Democratic Party nomination.
