The 2024 Rhode Island Republican presidential primary was held on April 2, 2024, as part of the Republican Party primaries for the 2024 presidential election. 19 delegates to the 2024 Republican National Convention were allocated on a winner-take-most basis. [1] The contest was held alongside primaries in Delaware, New York, and Wisconsin.

Even though Trump cruised to victory, he showed a poorer result as compared to his performance in 2020 (albeit as a non-incumbent), getting almost 3% fewer votes. [2] Conversely, Nikki Haley crossed the 10% threshold, [3] recording her best results in the suburban [4] town of Barrington, which Donald Trump lost in the 2016 primary [5] and the island town of New Shoreham.
