Let's analyze the data given in the chart, focusing on each conclusion to see which one is supported by the data.

### Conclusion 1: Voters are more likely to participate in a presidential election than a primary.
Let's compare the percentages for the primary and general elections for each state:

- Florida: Republican Primary: 12.8%, General Election: 63.5%
- Michigan: Republican Primary: 16.5%, General Election: 64.7%
- New York: Republican Primary: 1.4%, General Election: 53.1%
- California: Republican Primary: 22.9%, General Election: 55.2%
- Texas: Republican Primary: 12.8%, General Election: 49.7%

In all states listed, the percentage of voter turnout in the general election is higher than in the primary election. Therefore, this conclusion is supported.

### Conclusion 2: Voters are more likely to participate in a primary than in a presidential election.
The data shows that in each state, the voter turnout in the primary election is less than in the general election. Thus, this conclusion is not supported.

### Conclusion 3: California has more Republicans than New York.
To evaluate this, we compare the primary election turnouts:

- California: Republican Primary: 22.9%
- New York: Republican Primary: 1.4%

Since 22.9% (California) is greater than 1.4% (New York), this conclusion is supported.

### Conclusion 4: Texas and Florida have a similar number of Republican voters.
For this, we compare the primary election percentages between Texas and Florida:

- Texas: Republican Primary: 12.8%
- Florida: Republican Primary: 12.8%

The percentages are exactly the same, which supports this conclusion.

### Summary
Based on the data presented in the chart, the following conclusions are supported:

1. Voters are more likely to participate in a presidential election than a primary.
2. California has more Republicans than New York.
3. Texas and Florida have a similar number of Republican voters.

Thus, the correct conclusions supported by the data are:
- Voters are more likely to participate in a presidential election than a primary.
- California has more Republicans than New York.
- Texas and Florida have a similar number of Republican voters.
