Notes
- The number of pledged national convention delegates is calculated through the number of state delegates won, however, a candidate must get both at least 15% of the total vote to get statewide delegates and at least 15% of the vote in a congressional district to get district delegates from that district. Each precinct has a certain number of state delegates and allocates them based on how many caucus goers there are for each candidate at that precinct.
- Delegates aren't formally bound until the state convention on May 4
- The Missouri Republican Party has only released the state delegate results instead of the popular vote.[1]
