At-large delegates from Washington, D.C., to the Republican National Convention were elected at a district convention on March 12, 2016. DC GOP bylaws stipulated that district delegates were bound to their candidate on the first ballot at the convention. If a candidate who was allotted delegates at the district convention withdrew prior to the national convention, his or her delegates were to become unpledged. If only one candidate's name was placed in nomination at the national convention, DC GOP bylaws stipulated that all district delegates were to vote for that candidate, provided that that candidate won delegates in the district primary election.
