Delegate rules
Delegates from Nevada to the Republican National Convention were elected at the Nevada Republican Convention in May 2016. Delegates were bound on the first ballot unless the candidate to whom they were pledged suspended his campaign. However, a presidential candidate who withdrew from the presidential race could keep his delegates by submitting a request to the state party secretary stating that they remain bound on the first ballot.
