This article contains the results of the 2008 Republican presidential primaries and caucuses.
The 2008 Republican primaries were the selection processes by which the Republican Party selected delegates to attend the 2008 Republican National Convention. The series of primaries, caucuses, and state conventions culminated 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) was 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.
See main article: United States Republican presidential candidates, 2008. 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 Withdrawn candidates who had national campaigns were Ron Paul, Mike Huckabee,[1] Sam Brownback, John H. Cox, Jim Gilmore, Rudy Giuliani, Duncan Hunter, Mitt Romney, Tom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.

National delegates: 0 (of 47)
The Louisiana district caucuses held on January 22 selected state delegates for the state convention on February 16. Results of the delegates selected were released on January 29.[76] Delegates ran on multiple platforms, making it difficult to distinguish which candidate they would support. A large number of delegates ran on an uncommitted pro-life platform. In the days after the caucuses, it was reported McCain had the support of the most delegates, followed by Paul and Romney.[77] [78] According to party chairman Roger Villere, Jr., supporters of John McCain had majorities in congressional districts 1, 2, 3, 6, and 7, which he predicted would give McCain control of 41 of 47 of Louisiana's delegates.[79] By February 1, the uncommitted pro-life delegates supported McCain, along with Louisiana's three RNC members, ensuring McCain would have control of Louisiana's delegation.[80]
