How States Will Award Republican National Convention Delegates

Published



Just in time for Christmas, the RNC has a gift for political junkies: a comprehensive document* that explains how each state (and territory) will award its delegates through the Republican presidential primaries and caucuses. 

It’s more than a little complicated, but it’s important because winning delegates–not states, not the popular vote–is what ultimately matters.
