February 28 update: The Clark County (Las Vegas) precinct meetings
were held on February 23. Many counties will hold their meetings on
March 21. The Nevada delegates are not officially bound to any
candidate and will go to the convention "Uncommitted". The Nevada GOP
will probably not announce the presidential preference of their
delegates.
Wednesday 23 February through Tuesday 21 March 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."
Tuesday 21 March 2000: Republican Party County Conventions
convene in each county. Each County Convention chooses delegates to
the Nevada State Republican Convention.
- "County Conventions choose the county's delegates to the Nevada
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
Nevada 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."
Thursday 25 May to Saturday 27 May 2000: The Nevada State Republican Convention
convenes. The State Convention chooses all 17 delegates from Nevada to
the Republican National Convention.
- "There is, once again, no formal system of allocating Nevada's
National Convention delegates to presidential contenders. It is quite
possible that all 17 delegates will be chosen by the State Convention
as a whole, although- in the past- Congressional District Caucuses,
consisting of the State Convention delegates from each of Nevada's 2
congressional districts have met prior to the State Convention to
choose the 3 National Convention delegates assigned to each
congressional district, leaving the State Convention as a whole to
choose the 11 at-large (6 base at-large plus 5 bonus delegates)
delegates from Nevada to the Republican National Convention."
