Primary (preliminary)
Included in Nationwide vote.

All 19 Rhode Island delegates to the Republican National Convention are bound to the presidential contenders in today's Rhode Island primary. If a candidate receives 50% or more of the statewide vote, that candidate receives all 19 delegates. Otherwise, the 19 delegates are bound proportionally to those candidates receiving 20% (10%?) or more of the statewide vote. We do not have the rounding rules.

Primary (preliminary)

The name of each delegate along with their Presidential preference is listed on the primary ballot. The highest vote-getters become National Convention Delegates and alternates (up to the number won by the Presidential candidate) [Article III Rule 3.04 and 3.05].

In addition, 3 party leaders, the National Committeeman, the National Committeewoman, and the chairman of the Rhode Island's Republican Party, will attend the convention as pledged delegates by virtue of their position.

All Delegates elected under a Presidential candidate shall be required to vote for such Presidential candidate at the National Convention. Pledged Delegates may only be released ... By act of the Presidential candidate ... or ... After the first ballot .... [Article IV Rules 4.02, 4.02A, 4.02B]
