21 September 2019: KTTU reports that the Alaska Republican Party cancels 2020 Presidential Preference Poll. "The Alaska Republican Party State Central Committee elected to pass and interim rule allowing it to determine that conducting a Presidential Preference Poll would serve no useful purpose when we have an incumbent President, such as President Trump, running for the Republican nomination for President. As that is the case in 2020, no Presidential Preference Poll will be conducted for the 2020 presidential cycle." Alaska District Convention Dates, 2020 State Convention, and 2018 Alaska Republican Party Rules with Sep 2019 interim from the Alaska Republican Party. |

Circa February 2020 (date not set): Legislative District Conventions. Each District chooses delegates to the Alaska State Republican Convention. Dates for Districts 38 and 39 are TBD. |

When an incumbent Republican President is seeking the Republican nomination for President, a PPP need not be conducted.

[Alaska Republican Party Rules Appendix B. Section 1(b)] ... The incumbent Republican President will be the only "Qualified Presidential Candidate" in this case. [Appendix B. Section 2(f)(6)]. In addition, 3 party leaders, the National Committeeman, the National Committeewoman, and the chairman of the Alaska's Republican Party, are elected at today's state convention and will attend the National Convention by virtue of their position.

After the second round of balloting ... if the Candidate to which the Delegate is pledged is the candidate receiving the fewest number of votes ..., the Delegate is no longer required to support that candidate. If a ... delegate ... pledged to a ... Presidential Candidate who is no longer a candidate for the Republican Nomination for President as of the date of the National Convention, that delegate ... shall be deemed non-pledged.
