Presidential primaries and caucuses are being organized by state Republican parties and legislatures to select their delegates to the 2024 Republican National Convention, to determine the party's nominee for president in the 2024 U.S. presidential election. The elections will take place individually in all 50 U.S. states, the District of Columbia, and five U.S. territories, between January and June 2024. The 2024 Republican National Convention is scheduled to be held in July at the Fiserv Forum in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.[3]
Former president Donald Trump announced he would run on November 15, 2022. Former Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley became the first to follow his entrance on February 14, followed by wealth management executive Vivek Ramaswamy one week later, businessman Perry Johnson on March 2, former Arkansas governor Asa Hutchinson on April 6, radio host Larry Elder on April 20, U.S. Senator Tim Scott on May 19, Florida governor Ron DeSantis on May 24, former Vice President Mike Pence on June 5, former New Jersey governor Chris Christie on June 6, North Dakota governor Doug Burgum on June 7, Miami mayor Francis Suarez on June 14, and former U.S. Representative Will Hurd on June 22. Suarez dropped out of the race in August, with Hurd, Johnson, Elder, and Pence following in October, along with Scott on November 12, Burgum on December 4 and Christie on January 10.
Trump is considered the frontrunner and has maintained a consistent lead in primary polling since 2020. Some Republicans have expressed concerns about his nomination due to his loss in 2020, his own role in inciting the January 6 United States Capitol attack, his ongoing criminal investigations, and the results of the 2022 midterms, in which several Trump-endorsed candidates lost key races and cost the party a widely anticipated red wave.[4] However, many others have supported him and decried the investigations as politically motivated.[5] Among non-Trump candidates, DeSantis initially polled in a close second behind Trump,[6] but his polling numbers fell significantly in 2023, bringing him closer to the other candidates.[7] Ramaswamy experienced a surge in polling during the same time period, reaching his peak in August when he nearly caught DeSantis. Ramaswamy saw his own polling decline over the next several months, eventually falling behind both Haley and Christie.[8][9] Haley began climbing in polls in the final months of 2023. By December, she was beginning to outpace DeSantis in some polls.[10] As of January 2024, Trump remains far ahead. The Republican primary has been called a "race for second" due to Trump's consistent and prohibitive lead in polling.[11]
Trump is the first president to run after leaving office since Herbert Hoover in 1940. If he wins the Republican nomination, he will be the first Republican to be nominated for president three separate times since Richard Nixon (Republican nominee in 1960, 1968, and 1972), and the first person to be the Republican presidential nominee in three consecutive elections. If he wins the general election, he will be the first president to serve non-consecutive terms since Grover Cleveland, who won his second term in 1892.[12] Meanwhile, Pence's candidacy made him the first vice president to run against the president under whom they served since John Nance Garner in 1940,[13] while Burgum was the first person born in North Dakota to run for a major party's presidential nomination.[14]
Trump's eligibility to run has been in dispute. On December 19, 2023, the state of Colorado disqualified Trump from its primary ballot after the state's Supreme Court ruled in its decision Anderson v. Griswold that he was ineligible under Section 3 of the 14th Amendment for his role in the January 6 United States Capitol attack.[15] Trump will remain on the ballot pending an appeal.[16] The Colorado Republican Party is considering holding a caucus in place of the state-sanctioned primary if the decision stands.[17] On December 28, 2023, the state of Maine disqualified Trump from its primary ballot after Maine Secretary of State Shenna Bellows ruled he was ineligible, also citing section 3 of the 14th Amendment. However, Bellows stayed her own ruling to allow time for the Maine Superior Court to rule on an appeal.[18]

Sicknick's civil partner Sandra Garza argued that the pepper spray caused an allergic reaction that ultimately caused the death of Sicknick, despite the Washington D.C. coroner ruling the pepper spray had no effect on Sicknick's death, which was ruled as from natural causes.[66] Tanios was found guilty of entering and remaining on restricted grounds and disorderly and disruptive conduct on restricted grounds.

This came shortly after a poll which showed Haley in second place in Iowa with 29% to Trump's 44%.[135] In response, senior members of the Trump circle, including Donald Trump Jr., Roger Stone, and Tucker Carlson, have all rejected the idea.[136]
On December 28, Maine followed Colorado in prohibiting former President Trump from appearing on their ballots, though it was stayed pending an appeal.[137]

2024
January 2024
On January 3, Amit Mehta, the judge of the United States District Court for the District of Columbia, dismissed part of the Sicknick lawsuit against former President Trump, which argued that Trump was directly responsible for the death of a Capitol Police officer on January 6.[72] Specifically, the lawsuit was issued by Sandra Garza, who claimed to be Sicknick's domestic partner, the relationship of which Judge Mehta found did not give Garza standing in Washington, D.C. to sue Trump.[139] Additionally, it was found during Sicknick's autopsy that the blood clots in his brain which resulted in his death where not the result of any physical trauma during Jan 6, nor where they caused by allergic reactions to pepper spray as initially claimed, with the corner ruling that Jan 6 had no bearing on Sicknick's death.[139] Garza argued that Trump, and two rioters, Julian Khater and George Tanios, were engaged in a conspiracy to specifically target her husband and interfere with his civil rights, demanding a $10,000,000 restitution.[140][141] Despite this, Garza and her legal team are continuing to pursue the suit in hopes it reaches deposition.[142]
On January 5, the Supreme Court agreed to hear Trump's appeal of his removal from the Colorado ballot.[143]
On January 7, House Republican Conference chairwoman Elise Stefanik (R-NY21), stated in an interview with NBC's Meet the Press that she would be "honored" to serve as former President Trump's vice president, or in any other capacity in his prospective cabinet.[144][145] Shortly afterward Stefanik stated that she wouldn't certify the 2024 election results until it "is a legal and valid election" and called for the release of all inmates related to January 6, referring to them as "hostages."[146][147][148] During the Meet the Press interview, Stefanik stated that the single greatest threat to American democracy is Joe Biden and the Democratic Party, leading to the Washington Examiner stating that Stefanik is the "No. 1" pick to be Trump's running mate.[149][150][151]
On January 9, Gloria Navarro, judge for the United States District Court for the District of Nevada, rejected an effort in Nevada to block former President Trump from appearing on the state's ballots by John Anthony Castro, stating that Castro, a resident of Texas who cited the 14th Amendment in the case, as he does not have the standing to sue Trump under Nevada law.[152] The point is largely moot, as the lawsuit would've barred Trump from appearing on the Nevada primary, which he, most of the front-runners, and the Nevada Republican Party, are boycotting in favor of the Nevada caucus.[153]
On January 10, former New Jersey Governor Chris Christie withdrew from the race.[154] The fifth Republican presidential debate was held at Drake University in Des Moines, hosted by CNN.[155] The requirements to attend were: finishing in the top three in local polls in Iowa, and be polling at at least 10% in both national and local polls.[156] The three candidates that qualified were Trump, Haley, and DeSantis. Trump again did not participate, leaving the debate solely between Haley and DeSantis.[157] Continuing his counterprogramming strategy, Trump instead appeared at a town hall with Fox News.[158] Ramaswamy hosted a podcast interview with podcaster Tim Pool and Candace Owens after not qualifying for the debate.[159]
On January 15, the first election of the cycle takes place with the 2024 Iowa Republican presidential caucuses.
On January 18, the sixth Republican debate will be hosted by ABC News.[160]
On January 21, the seventh Republican presidential debate will be held at St. Anselm College in Goffstown, New Hampshire, hosted by CNN. The requirements to attend are similar to the fifth debate, however, the local polls must be in New Hampshire.[156]

Opinion polling
Campaign finance
This is an overview of the money used by each campaign as it is reported to the Federal Election Commission (FEC). Totals raised include individual contributions, loans from the candidate, and transfers from other campaign committees. Individual contributions are itemized (catalogued) by the FEC when the total value of contributions by an individual comes to more than $200. The last column, Cash On Hand, shows the remaining cash each campaign had available for its future spending as of September 30, 2023. Campaign finance reports for the fourth quarter of 2023 will become available on January 15, 2024.[169]
This table does not include contributions made to Super PACs or party committees supporting the candidate. Each value is rounded up to the nearest dollar.

Primaries and caucus calendar
Timing
Republican Party rules mandate that changes to all contest dates must occur by September 2023, and there appears to be a trend of contests being scheduled earlier than usual.[186] They specify that all must occur between March and June 11, 2024 – except for Iowa, New Hampshire, Nevada, and South Carolina – which are allowed to hold contests in February. Iowa chose to hold its caucus the earliest in over a decade, on a federal holiday – January 15 – as the rules are not legally binding.[187]
New Hampshire is expected in late January, a result of state law requiring it to be held at least a week prior to other primaries. Nevada is expected on February 6, with South Carolina on February 24 and Michigan on February 27. The bulk of contests will be concentrated in March, as in previous presidential primaries.[188]
Nevada controversy
After the 2020 presidential election, the Democratic-controlled Nevada Legislature moved to establish a presidential primary for the Republican and Democratic parties.[189] Previously, party-organized caucuses were used in Nevada to determine delegates in presidential elections.
In May 2023, the Nevada Republican Party sued the state of Nevada in an effort to continue the use of caucuses as the means to determine its delegate allocation. It was stated in a court filing from the Nevada Attorney General's office that the Nevada Republican Party was allowed to choose between a primary or caucus, since the primary is non-binding and because state law does not mandate specific rules governing how political parties are to choose its candidate for president.[190]
On August 14, 2023, the Nevada Republican Party announced it would hold its caucuses on February 8 with the February 6 state primary being non-binding.[191]
Michigan controversy
The Michigan primary will take place 2 weeks early, on February 27, 2024 – if its legislature adjourns as expected a month early by November 29, 2023. Michigan legislature laws not passed with a supermajority go into effect 90 days after the adjournment of its session.[192]
The Michigan primaries were originally scheduled to be held in March and thus in accordance with Republican rules, but Democrats, who are in control of the Michigan legislature and governorship after the 2022 midterm elections, decided to move up both primaries as part of their own 2024 presidential delegate selection plan. As a result, the earlier date of February 27 violates Republican rules – which state that only Iowa, New Hampshire, Nevada and South Carolina can vote earlier than March 1, 2024.
Michigan Republicans are facing a harsh penalty of up to 90% of their delegates being stripped, if they go forward with their earlier primary. Republicans in Michigan have criticized Democrats in Michigan for their unilateral move and are considering boycotting the earlier primary and instead are considering a party-run caucus later in March.[193]
Delegates
There will be an estimated total of 2,467 delegates to the 2024 Republican National Convention. In contests until March 15, delegates must be awarded on a proportional basis, either by percentage of statewide vote or share of congressional districts won. Some states have established thresholds between 4 and 20% for proportionality to kick in, under which a candidate receives no delegates. A vast majority, 41 contests totaling 1,920 delegates, operate this way using methods that are hybrid between proportionality and majority-take-all. New York for example has a 20% threshold for proportionality but if a candidate wins a majority, they take all delegates.[194][195]
North Dakota, Wyoming, American Samoa, Guam, Virgin Islands, and 51 of Pennsylvania's 67 delegates are unpledged (free to vote for anyone at the convention), totaling 119. Florida, New Jersey, Ohio, Colorado, Arizona, Nebraska, South Dakota, and Montana's delegates are strictly awarded on a plurality-take-all basis, totaling 428. It will be possible for a candidate to take all 928 delegates of 19 contests by simply winning a threshold of votes.[196][197]
By Super Tuesday, over 40% of delegates will have been awarded, and most by March 19. Republican Party rules mandate changes to delegate allocation methods happen by September 30. The primaries will conclude with a final vote on the nominee by a majority of delegates, at the newly elected Republican National Convention in Milwaukee, which will be held July 15–18.[198][199]
Candidate filing deadlines
As of August 2023, at least 20 states have announced their filing deadlines for presidential candidates seeking the nomination of their party in order to appear on the state's ballots. Between September 1 and October 15, 2023, Nevada has the nation's first filing window and deadline for its February 8, 2024, presidential caucus. The filing window for the New Hampshire primary will be between October 11–27. 13 additional states, including populous California and Texas, have filing deadlines by December 22, 2023.[200]
