The 2024 Alaska Republican presidential primary was held on March 5, 2024, as part of the Republican Party primaries for the 2024 presidential election. 29 delegates to the 2024 Republican National Convention were allocated on a proportional basis.[1] The contest was held on Super Tuesday alongside primaries in 14 other states.

Background

In the 2016 Republican presidential contest, Senator Ted Cruz won the Alaska caucuses with 36.4% of the vote, while Donald Trump followed closely with 33.6% of the vote. In the 2020 primaries, the Alaska Republican Party canceled their caucuses on the basis that Trump was the incumbent and "a PPP (presidential preference poll) need not be conducted."[2]
