WYFF 4, an NBC affiliate in Greenville, S.C., report that GOP leaders claimed their decision to abandon the lottery system was due the small size of the venue.

"If we had not had it at the Peace Center we probably would have had more people come, but the Peace Center is the venue that CBS chose,” said Chad Groover, chairman of the Greenville County Republican party.
