Saturday 7 February 2004 - District Caucuses convene to choose 21 distict delegates to the Republican National Convention. Each delegate is required to sign an affidavit stating they cast their ballot for the Presidential candidate who receives the most votes in the 9 March 2004 primary.

  • 3 National Convention Delegates are elected in each of the 7 congressional districts. The top three vote getters in each Congressional District become delegates; the next three become alternates.
 

Tuesday 9 March 2004 - All 45 of Louisiana's delegates to the Republican National Convention are allocated to presidential contenders in today's Louisiana Presidential Primary.

  • 21 district delegates are to be allocated to the presidential contender receiving the greatest number of votes in the primary statewide.
  • 24 (10 at-large, 11 bonus, plus 3 party leaders) of Louisiana's delegates are allocated on a proportional basis:
    • Candidates must receive at least 10% of the statewide vote to be allocated any delegates.
    • Any candidate receiving a fractional number of delegates is be allocated the nearest lower number of delegates.
    • Any delegate positions that remain open (as a result of threshold or rounding) are awarded to the candidate with the highest statewide vote total.
  • Note: An alternate source states that the 24 at-large, bonus, and party leader delegates will be selected by the Bush-Cheney committee.
