2024 Presidential Primaries, Caucuses, and Conventions:

Monday 15 January 2024: IOWA Republican PRESIDENTIAL CAUCUSES begin at 7 PM local time (0100 GMT/UTC)
by TheGreenPapers.com Staff

Iowa GOP Precinct Caucuses begin at 7:00p local time [0100 GMT]: A Republican Party Caucus in each precinct chooses that precinct's delegates to the Republican County Convention and, at the same time, conducts a Presidential Poll by secret ballot. NOTE: Only registered Republicans in the state of Iowa can participate in the Republican caucus. Individuals may register to vote as a Republican at the caucus being held in their own election precinct.

Republican Party County Conventions will later convene in each county to choose delegates to the Congressional District Conventions and the State Convention; each of Iowa's 4 congressional districts is assigned 3 National Convention delegates (to be chosen, later still, by Republican Party District Conventions in each such district).

The Iowa State Republican Convention, at the end of this whole Caucus/Convention process, chooses 25 of Iowa's allocated 40 Republican National Convention delegates; 3 State GOP leaders-- the National Committeeman, the National Committeewoman, and the chairman of the Iowa's Republican Party-- will attend the National Convention as delegates ex officio.

2024 Iowa Republican Caucus Preliminary Results from the Republican Party of Iowa.

Mission Statement

Welcome! This site is dedicated to the dissemination of facts, figures, tidbits and commentary- in fact, information of many different kinds- related (primarily) to the American political process. We sincerely hope you very easily find the kind of information you are looking for here, perhaps even information- all gathered here in one place- you might not so easily find anywhere else.


 
2024 Presidential Primaries, Caucuses, and Conventions (these pages contain a combination of preliminary, unofficial, and estimated data)
The "soft" delegate count is this website's estimate of the potential delegate support for each contender based on key delegate selection events already held and is subject to change as we get closer to the National Conventions. The "hard" count is the tabulation of delegates formally pledged or bound by law and/or Party rules. In order for a Democratic Presidential candidate to be nominated, either a majority of pledged delegate votes must support a single candidate on the first ballot or, a majority of all (pledged and unpledged [aka automatic]) delegate votes must support a single candidate on any ballot.
