Quick Facts

Overview

Major candidates

The following are the results of candidates that have won at least one state. These candidates are on the ballots for every state, territory, and federal district contest. The results of caucuses do not always have attached preference polls and attendance can be extremely limited. The unpledged delegate count may not always reflect the latest declared preferences. Results are collected by The New York Times.[3] For explanations of the various types of primaries see primary elections in the United States.
