Translation for those who might not get why the misspelling matters: on some ballots, a voter is able to select something like "Vote For All Republicans". This will automatically select all Republican candidates on the ballot. The computer looks for all candidates that have the proper party, REPUBLICAN.

However, by misspelling Trump's party as REPUBIICAN (swapping the lowercase "el" for a capital "eye") the computer will select all Republicans on the ballot EXCEPT for Donald Trump.

Hope this helps clear any confusion. I had a hard time figuring out what the problem was myself.

'Republican' vs. 'Republican' illustrates it better than ALL CAPS.

All I could read in your post was 'all caps'. Everything prior was gibberish.
