The 2008 Florida Republican presidential primary was held on January 29, 2008, with 57 delegates at stake on a winner-take-all basis.[1][2] The Republican National Committee removed half of Florida's delegates because the state committee moved its Republican primary before February 5.[1]
Arizona Senator and eventual nominee John McCain won the primary with 36% of the vote. As a presidential candidate, former New York City mayor Rudy Giuliani concentrated heavily on the Florida primary. After coming in third place behind McCain and former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney, Giuliani dropped out of the race the following day.[3] McCain's win helped him cement his status as the Republican primary frontrunner.[4]
