Delegate Count

The GOP Presidential Delegate Count as of 3/23/16 for the two viable candidates is Trump 739 and Cruz 465.

The total count for the other candidates is Kasich 143, Rubio 166, Carson 8, Bush 4, Fiorina 1. Huckabee 1 and Paul 1.  The total delegate count for these candidates is 324.

If the delegates are released, and all 324 went to Cruz, Cruz would have 789, but it’s more likely that these delegates would split between Cruz and Trump.

The total delegate count voted so far is 1528. Republican Delegates needed to win the nomination is 1,237.

In this last round on 3/23/16, Arizona went to Trump with 58 delegates and Utah went to Cruz with 40 delegates.

There are many more states to go through June and it is thought that Trump would win most of these States.
