Why The State Is Significant:

• Alaskans like to point out that the number of delegates that were stake in the GOP caucuses -- 28 -- is just two shy of the number that were at stake in the first-in-the-nation Iowa caucuses.

• Alaska was also the only Western state in the Super Tuesday group and has more than 136,000 registered Republicans.

Fast Facts:

• In Alaska, the state Republican Party refers to the nominating contest not as a caucus, but instead as a Presidential Preference Poll.

• In 2016, Ted Cruz defeated Donald Trump in the Republican caucuses, but by a narrow margin. Each candidate came away with 14 delegates.
