The Popular Vote above is based on unofficial
returns from the 29 February caucuses. (100% of the caucuses
reporting).
The "Soft Pledged" count above was computed by allocating the 19
delegates according to the caucus vote. That is, Bush received 76% of
the vote so he receives 76% of 19 delegates or 14 delegates. Since this is a
rough estimate, the 19 delegates will remain listed as available
on the "Hard Total" above. The delegates will actually be chosen 31
March to 2 April 2000 (as documented below).
"Incomplete and preliminary information... subject to
further alteration"
Tuesday 29 February 2000: Republican Party Caucuses meet in each
precinct. Each Precinct Caucus chooses the precinct's delegates to the
County Conventions.
- "There is no formal system applied in the Precinct Caucuses to
relate the presidential preference of the Caucus participants to the
choice of the precinct's delegates to the County Convention of the
county in which the precinct is located. The participants at each
Precinct Caucus alone determine if presidential preference is to be a
factor in such choice and, if so, how it is to be applied."
(date currently unknown - March 2000): Republican Party
County Conventions convene in each county. Each County Convention
chooses delegates to the North Dakota State Republican Convention.
- "County Conventions choose the county's delegates to the North
Dakota State Republican Convention. Again, there is no formal system
applied in the County Convention to relate the presidential preference
of the Convention's delegates to the choice of the county's delegates
to the North Dakota State Republican Convention. The delegates in
attendance at each County Convention alone determine if presidential
preference is to be a factor and, if so, how it is to be
applied."
Friday 31 March through Sunday 2 April 2000: The North Dakota State
Republican Convention convenes. The State Convention chooses all 19
delegates from North Dakota to the Republican National Convention.
- "All 19 delegates will be chosen by the State Convention as a
whole. Once more, there is no formal system of allocating North
Dakota's National Convention delegates to presidential contenders; the
delegates in attendance at the State Convention alone determine if
presidential preference is to be a factor and, if so, how it is to be
applied."
