Background
In the 2016 Republican presidential contest, Senator Ted Cruz won the Alaska caucuses with 36.4% of the vote, while Donald Trump followed closely with 33.6% of the vote. In the 2020 primaries, the Alaska Republican Party canceled their caucuses on the basis that Trump was the incumbent and "a PPP (presidential preference poll) need not be conducted."[2]
