The 2024 Oklahoma Republican presidential primary was held on March 5, 2024, as part of the Republican Party primaries for the 2024 presidential election. Forty-three delegates to the 2024 Republican National Convention were allocated on a winner-take-most basis.[1] The contest was held on Super Tuesday alongside primaries in 14 other states.
In September 2023, a lawsuit was filed seeking to bar Donald Trump from appearing on the ballot. The Oklahoma Republican Party is defending against the suit and seeking to allow Trump to appear on the ballot, with party chairman Nathan Dahm saying "someone from out of state should not be able to prohibit us, the Republicans, from determining who he wants to vote for president. That should be left up to the Republican voters in this state."[2]
