This article contains the results of the 2008 Republican presidential primaries and caucuses.
The 2008 Republican primaries are the selection processes by which the Republican Party selects delegates to attend the 2008 Republican National Convention. The series of primaries, caucuses, and state conventions culminates in the National Convention which was held in Saint Paul, Minnesota, September 1–4, 2008, where the delegates voted on and selected a candidate. A simple majority of delegate votes in September (1,191 out of 2,380) is required to become the party's nominee; estimates based on delegate pledges had John McCain surpassing this total after the March 4 primaries in Ohio, Rhode Island, Texas, and Vermont.
Candidates
The only candidate with a national campaign at the end of the primary season was John McCain. Withdrawn candidates who had national campaigns were Ron Paul, Mike Huckabee,[1] Sam Brownback, John H. Cox, Jim Gilmore, Rudy Giuliani, Duncan Hunter, Mitt Romney, Tom Tancredo, Fred Thompson, and Tommy Thompson.
Overview of results
The data contained in the row entitled Actual pledged delegates is a subset of the data in the row entitled Estimated pledged delegates. It represents delegates won in contests where the final apportionment of delegates has already been decided, but does not include delegates from contests where the final apportionment depends upon the outcome of further caucuses or conventions.[2] Caveat lector: the below "Estimated total delegates" row totals 2,390 delegates, but there are only 2,380 delegates.

- ↑ Abstentions or delegates not voting: Idaho 6, Maine 1, Nebraska 2, North Carolina 4, and Pennsylvania 1. Ron Paul had a soft-total of 6 delegates from the Idaho primary, but it is unknown whether these were the same six delegates that abstained at the convention, or not.
- ↑ Delegates voting affirmatively for Ron Paul: Alaska 5, Minnesota 6 (floor mic cut off and originally reported as abstentions but later corrected officially), Oklahoma 2 (floor mic difficulty officially corrected 2008-09-21 by the RNC), Oregon 4, Washington 4, and West Virginia 2 (chair mis-spoke result -- never officially corrected by the RNC).
- ↑ Delegates voting affirmatively for Mitt Romney: 2, both from Utah (Romney had a vacation-home there at the time, and had recently worked there as CEO of the Olympics, plus shared the same religion as 60% of the citizens).
- Dashes indicate that a candidate was not on the ballot. For contests that are in progress or upcoming all candidates have dashes.
- A These delegate numbers are estimates. Delegate will be officially allocated during later caucuses, primaries, or state conventions.
- B These delegations all have three additional delegates (made up of the party leadership) that will attend the national convention as unpledged. In the case of Idaho, three delegates are party leadership and three others are elected at the state convention; all six are unpledged.
- C These delegations use multiple caucus, primary, or state convention processes to choose national delegates on different days. These processes are explained below.

Louisiana caucuses
Caucus date: January 22, 2008
National delegates: 0 (see note below)
The Louisiana caucus is not considered an official race and all the state delegates chosen during the caucuses are nationally uncommitted, but they could run on one or multiple slates. Louisiana chooses 20 national delegates plus 3 PLEO delegates during the state convention on February 16, 2008. All the delegates elected at the state convention are officially considered uncommitted due to state party rules, but the delegation of John McCain is having the majority at the state convention since he won the majority of delegates in the districts 1, 2, 3, 6, and 7. So it is very likely that all 20 + 3 delegates will support John McCain.
The official results have not been released, and some media have reported that John McCain won, that Ron Paul took second, and that Mitt Romney took a distant third.[74] A slate of uncommitted delegates running on a pro-life platform was the overall winner.[75]
