Delegate allocation

See also: 2016 presidential nominations: calendar and delegate rules

Vermont had 16 delegates at the 2016 Republican National Convention. Of this total, three were district-level delegates (all for the state's single congressional district). District-level delegates were allocated proportionally; a candidate had to win at least 20 percent of the statewide vote in order to be eligible to receive any district delegates. If a candidate received more than 50 percent of the statewide vote, he or she received all of the state's district delegates.

Of the remaining 13 delegates, 10 served at large. At-large delegates were allocated proportionally; a candidate had to win at least 20 percent of the statewide vote in order to be eligible to receive any of the state's at-large delegates. If a candidate won more than 50 percent of the statewide vote, he or she received all of the state's at-large delegates. In addition, three national party leaders (identified on the chart below as RNC delegates) served as bound delegates to the Republican National Convention.
