Tracking the 2024 Republican delegates

States choose to allocate Republican delegates to candidates either on a winner-take-all method or proportionally

The Iowa caucus kicked off the official start to the Republican presidential primary season, where candidates are campaigning to pick up as many delegates as possible to secure the Republican National Committee (RNC) nomination.

Delegates are individuals who represent the majority of voters in their state or district. They can be party leaders, activists, volunteers, legislators or other people who approve of the party’s platform.

Each state is given a specific number of Republican or Democratic delegates. This year, Republicans have allocated 2,429 delegates. A candidate needs approximately 1,215 to secure a nomination.

How delegates are given to each candidate depends on the state. Some states, like Iowa and New Hampshire, award delegates proportionally to the amount of support they get. Other states, like Nevada, have a winner-take-all method in which the candidate with the most votes gets all the delegates.

Donald Trump is currently the Republican frontrunner and achieved the number of delegates needed to secure the RNC nomination. His last remaining challenger, former UN ambassador Nikki Haley, dropped out of the race on 6 March.
