Here is the GOP web link for 2016 Nomination Process
Repeal: your list shows Wyoming next Tuesday, the GOP list does not. I think Jeff seems to match what is on their web site. (Web sites are not always right, though, even official ones).
Jeff: Here are the two crucial numbers you might want to put at the bottom of the "delegates" charts
Delegates to the Convention: 2,472
Delegates Needed to Win the Nomination (50%+1): 1,237
Also, note that like the Democrats, Team Elephant does have Superdelegates, though there are far fewer of them. In other words the GOP process is more determined by the voters and caucus goers, the Dem process is more weighted to the insiders. (A fun point to continue reminding Bernie Sanders supporters of)
Again, here are the details from the GOP web site on how the number of delegates is arrived at for the GOP:
At-Large Delegates (AL) are statewide delegates who are residents of that state and are selected at large. Each state receives 10 AL delegates plus additional AL delegates based on the states past Republican electoral successes. (10 delegates + bonus)Congressional District (CD) Delegates must be residents of and selected by the congressional district they represent. Each state gets three CD delegates per district. (3 delegates per district)
RNC Members are automatically national convention delegates and include the states national committeeman, national committeewoman, and state chair. (3 delegates)
Any chance of putting them somewhere easier to find than in a FR thread, like a web site?
Thanks!
I will go back and review mine again.
You are right that not all of the websites agree.
It is especially difficult to find what happens to the
onesies and twosies in the delegate count for those candidates
who drop out (Bush, Fiorina, Huckabee, Paul), apparently
that is decided by the individual state party rules and
they can either be re-allocated or go to the convention “unbound”.
OK, here is the asterisk at the very bottom of the page you inked to:
-
* American Samoa (9 delegates), Colorado (37 delegates),
Guam (9 delegates), North Dakota (28 delegates),
Wyoming (29 delegates), and the U.S. Virgin Islands (9 delegates)
will not hold presidential preference votes in 2016.

Thanks, again.
