♦ 81 district delegates are to be allocated to presidential contenders based on the primary results in each of the 27 congressional districts: each congressional district is assigned 3 National Convention delegates and the presidential contender receiving the greatest number of votes in that district -if over 50%- will receive all 3 of that district’s National Convention delegates. If winner falls below 50%: winner gets two, runner up gets one (minimum threshold 20%)

♦ 14 at-large delegates (10 base at-large delegates plus 1 bonus delegates plus 3 RNC delegates) are to be bound to the presidential contender receiving the greatest number of votes in the primary statewide.
