Republican Delegate Count: 2012 U.S. presidential election (UPDATE: May 23)

The 2012 presidential race ultimately comes down to which candidate has the most combined delegates from the 50 states in the United States, the District of Columbia, and the United States’ territories.  Here is the up-to-date list of the candidates who have been on the ballots in states having had caucuses and primaries so far, and the number of delegates they have to date. 

The list includes candidates that have quit their bid for the presidency because their names still appeared on some ballots, and therefore, they have the opportunity to receive delegates.  The lists will be updated after each primary and caucus
