Tuesday 5 February 2008: 45 of 48 of Alabama's delegates to the Republican National Convention are allocated to presidential contenders in today's Alabama Presidential Primary.

• Based on the results of the primary, 21 district delegates are allocated to presidential contenders in a manner that depends on whether or not a presidential contender has received a majority of the vote in each of the 7 congressional districts. Each congressional district is assigned 3 National Convention delegates.
• If a candidate receives a majority of the vote (more than 50%), that candidate is allocated all 3 of the district's delegates.
• If only one candidate receives 20% or more of the vote, that candidates is allocated all 3 of the district's delegates.
• If no candidate receives a majority of the vote, the candidate with the plurality (most votes) is allocated 2 delegates and the candidate with the next highest number of votes is allocated 1 delegate.
• 24 at-large delegates are to be proportionally allocated to the presidential contenders based on the statewide primary results. A mandatory 20 percent threshold is required in order for a presidential contender to be allocated National Convention delegates at the statewide level.
  • Round the delegate allocations to the nearest whole number. If the rounding allocates too few delegates, the candidate with the largest statewide vote is receives the remaining delegate(s). If the rounding allocates too many delegates, the candidate receiving the smallest statewide vote looses as many delegates as necessary.

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

Each delegate’s name appears on the ballot below the candidate’s name unless the delegate is unopposed.
