NEGOP Constitution from the Nebraska Republican Party.


A candidate who has been determined by the Secretary of State to be a recognized candidate for the presidency is automatically placed on the primary election ballot. For others, the deadline for filing is 15 March 2024.


   

Circa March - April 2024 (date not set): County Conventions elect delegates to the State Convention.

 

This Presidential Primary coincides with a state/local primary. These coinciding primaries tend to have an impact upon voter turnout.

Nebraska has voter registration by party and provides that a political party may allow non-affiliated voters to vote in their primary election.

Tuesday 14 May 2024: Nebraska Primary. Hours 8:00a-8:00p CDT / 7:00a-7:00p MDT (1300-0100 UTC). The polls open and close at the same GMT/UTC time, that is, polls open and close at a particular local time in the advanced time zone and open and close one hour earlier local time in the lagging time zone. Delegate Selection: Winner-Take-All Primary. Voter Eligibility: Closed Primary.

All 36 of Nebraska's delegates to the Republican National Convention are pledged to the candidate who receives the most votes in today's Nebraska Presidential Primary [Nebraska Republican Party State Constitution Article VII §3.3].

Saturday 18 May 2024: The Nebraska State Republican Convention convenes in Kearney. The State Committee approves the slate of National Convention Delegates.

  • Congressional District Caucuses made up of the State Convention delegates from each of Nebraska's 3 congressional districts elect the 9 district National Convention delegates (3 per congressional district) according to the results of the primary.
  • The State Convention as a whole selects 24 (10 base at-large plus 14 bonus) at-large delegates to the Republican National Convention according to the results of the primary. [NEBRASKA REPUBLICAN PARTY CONSTITUTION, Article VII Section 3.].
  • The 3 party leaders, the National Committeeman, the National Committeewoman, and the chairman of Nebraska's Republican Party, will attend the convention as pledged delegates by virtue of their position. [In each year when a President of the United States is to be elected, the State Convention shall elect a National Committeeman and a National Committeewoman to take office at the close of the succeeding National Convention. - NEBRASKA REPUBLICAN PARTY CONSTITUTION, Article IV Section 1.]

National Convention delegates are bound to vote for the candidate they pledged support for the first 2 ballots at the National Convention unless the candidate received less than 35% of the vote at the National Convention.
