Tuesday 1 March 2016: All 76 of Georgia's delegates to the Republican National Convention are bound to presidential contenders in today's Presidential Primary.

• 42 district delegates bound to presidential contenders based on the primary results in each of the 14 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 no candidate receives a majority of the vote, the candidate with the most votes (plurality) receives 2 delegates and the candidate receiving the next highest number of votes receives 1 delegate. [Rules of the Georgia Republican Party. 7.3(B)(3)]
• 34 statewide delegates (10 base at-large, 21 bonus, plus 3 RNC delegates) are bound to presidential contenders according to the statewide vote. A mandatory 20% threshold is required for a presidential contender to receive National Convention delegates. If no candidate receives 20%, the threshold is 15%, if no candidate receives 15%, the threshold is 10%. [Rules of the Georgia Republican Party. 7.3(B)(4)]
• If a candidate receives a majority of the vote (more than 50%), or only 1 candidate meets the threshold, that candidate is allocated the 34 statewide delegates.
• If no candidate receives a majority of the vote then, for each candidate receiving the threshold or more of the vote, delegates = [the number of votes received by that candidate] × [34 statewide delegates] ÷ [the statewide vote for those candidates receiving the threshold or more]. Each candidate receives the whole number of delegates (that is, round down to the whole number). If delegates remain, award the slots to the candidate(s) (who received the threshold or more) proportionally. [Rules of the Georgia Republican Party. 7.3(B)(4)]
• The 3 RNC party leader delegates, the National Committeeman, National Committeewoman, and the chairman of the Georgia's Republican Party are allocated with the At-Large delegates. They are, however, bound to the candidate receiving the most votes statewide. [Rules of the Georgia Republican Party. 7.3(B)(4)]

Allocate the statewide delegates to those candidates meeting the 20% threshold:

Cruz: 27.170% of 34 delegates = 9.238 round to 9. Carry forward: 1.
One by one, allocate the remaining 1 delegate slot to the candidate(s) meeting the
20% threshold ordered by their statewide vote. Repeat until all delegates are allocated.

The oath shall state that the delegate ... affirms to support such candidate until the candidate is either nominated ... or receives less than 35 percent of the votes for nomination ..., or until the candidate releases the delegates.... No delegate shall be required to vote for such candidate after two convention nominating ballots..."
