The Republicans hold their primary in South Carolina on Saturday while the Democrats hold theirs a week later on Feb. 27. Since 1980, the Palmetto State has held its “First in the South” Republican primary. While on the other side of the aisle, Democrats held a caucus before the 1992 presidential primary in South Carolina, and has flip-flopped between holding a primary or a caucus.
