The 2012 Florida Republican presidential primary was held on January 31, 2012.[1] Fifty delegates were at stake, none of them RNC (or super) delegates; it is unclear whether these delegates will be allocated proportionally or winner-take-all. Originally awarded 99 delegates,[1] the Republican National Committee removed half of Florida's delegates because the state committee moved its Republican primary before March 6;[2] the Republican National Committee rules also set the delegate allocation to be proportional because the contest was held before April 1.[3] It is a closed primary.[1] There were 4,063,853 registered Republican voters as of January 3, 2012.[4]
Florida is spread over two time zones, so voting wasn't completed until 7 pm CST/8pm EST.[5]
