1924 Republican Party presidential primaries
Selection of Republican US presidential candidate
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
From February 12 to June 7, 1924, voters of the Republican Party chose its nominee for president in the 1924 United States presidential election. Only 17 states held Republican primaries that year, with most states selecting Convention delegates through caucuses and state-level conventions. Delegates chosen through the primary process (in those states that held primary elections) attended the 1924 Republican National Convention held from June 10 to June 12, 1924, in Cleveland, Ohio.[1]
