MARYLAND DELEGATES TO REPUBLICAN PARTY NATIONAL CONVENTION,
SAN DIEGO, CALIFORNIA,
AUGUST 12-15, 1996

In 1996, Maryland was allotted 32 delegates for the Republican Party National Convention. Of these, Republican voters elected 24 delegates (3 in each Congressional District) and the Republican State Central Committee chose 8 delegates.

At the National Convention, elected delegates must vote for the Presidential candidate who wins in their Congressional district. At-Large delegates must vote for the candidate who carries the State. Delegates are released from this commitment after the second ballot unless their candidate withdraws or receives less than 35 percent of the vote at the Convention.
