GET ME REWRITE: 15% of registered Republicans participate in Iowa caucus

 
As of November 30, 2023, there are 718,901 registered Republican voters in Iowa.  

Caucus participants must be regsitered with the party of the caucus they are attending.

Trump received the votes of 7.8% of all registered Republicans votes in the 2024 Iowa caucus.  Hardly the big victory that the New York Times proclaims.
