• 15 district delegates are to be allocated to presidential contenders based on the primary results in each of the 5 congressional districts: each congressional district is assigned 3 National Convention delegates and the presidential contender receiving the greatest number of votes in that district will receive all 3 of that district's National Convention delegates. [Article I, Section 17. (b)]
• 10 at-large delegates (10 base at-large delegates plus 0 bonus delegates) are to be allocated to presidential contenders based on the statewide primary vote. [Article I, Section 17. (a)(f)]
• If one candidate receives a majority of the statewide vote (more than 50%), that candidate is allocated all 10 of the at-large delegates.
• If no candidate receives a majority of the statewide vote, each presidential candidate receiving 20% or more of the statewide vote shall be allocated delegates accordingly based on their percentage of the vote total of those candidates who met the 20% threshold. Round fractional proportions of a delegate to the nearest whole number. If rounding results in too few delegates being allocated, the candidate receiving the most votes receives an additional delegate.

The delegates ... shall be committed ... unless released by the candidate, shall vote for the candidate on the first ballot, and shall not change their vote during the course of that ballot. [Article I, Section 17 (a)]
