This article contains the results of the 2012 Republican presidential primaries and caucuses, in which four major candidates remain: Newt Gingrich, Ron Paul, Mitt Romney, and Rick Santorum. The 2012 Republican primaries are the selection processes by which the Republican Party selects delegates to attend the 2012 Republican National Convention from August 27–30. The series of primaries, caucuses, and state conventions culminates in the national convention where the delegates vote on and select a candidate. A simple majority (1,144) of the total delegate votes (2,286) is required to become the party's nominee.

Since the start of the primaries and caucuses three major candidates have dropped out of the race; Michele Bachmann suspended her campaign following a poor performance in Iowa; Jon Huntsman dropped out after placing third in the New Hampshire primary; Rick Perry dropped out after Iowa and New Hampshire but prior to the South Carolina primary after polling poorly.
Overview of results
Major candidates
- The delegate totals are a projection and have not been officially pledged yet. This applies to a delegate from a non-binding primary or caucus election, as in Iowa, Colorado, Minnesota, Maine, and Washington[1]. These are awarded officially at Congressional and State Conventions on a later date.
- Unprojected delegates included in Total for each State. 1,783 pledged, 503 unprojected/unpledged[2].
- Winner-take-all states begin with the April 3, 2012 primaries, with the exception of Florida's and Arizona's primaries.

- a Missouri's February 7 primary has no bearing on the allocation of the state's 52 delegates.
- b Vote totals (except for percentages) don't consider votes for minor candidates, as well as votes for "uncommitted", "no preference", "write-ins" or other options.
- c As of March 2012, Texas's primary is officially scheduled for May 29. [7] [8][9]

Other candidates / withdrawn candidates
Two major candidates, who had been invited to the debates, Herman Cain and Gary Johnson, had withdrawn from the race after states began to certify candidates for ballot spots. Two serious candidates who were not invited, Buddy Roemer and Fred Karger, had a very hard time getting on primary ballots and achieved only limited success. Four candidates, Chris Hill, Keith Drummond, Mike Meehan, and Mark Callahan, qualified for the ballot in two primaries, while the rest, over 25 in all, were on the ballot in only one, either New Hampshire or Arizona, which both had relatively easy requirements.
