Delegate rules
Delegates from Oregon to the 2016 Republican National Convention were elected at a state convention in June 2016. Oregon delegate candidates were required to indicate which presidential candidate they favor, and if selected to participate in the national convention, sign a pledge to support him or her. All delegates from Oregon were bound on the first ballot unless released by their candidate. On the second ballot, a delegate was to remain bound if the candidate received at least 35 percent of the convention vote on the previous ballot. All Oregon delegates were to be unbound on the third and subsequent ballots.
