The New York Republican presidential primary was held on February 5, 2008 (
Super Tuesday). There were 101 delegates up for grabs for the candidates. The delegates were awarded on a winner-take-all basis, which means the winner,
Arizona Senator
John McCain, received all 101 delegates for the
2008 Republican National Convention.
On February 2, McCain had held a fairly large lead in the polls above the competition with 35% as opposed to the next candidate
Rudy Giuliani with 22.5%, who had announced a withdrawal from the race on January 30,
2008.[1]
