American Samoa 2024 Republican caucus results

American Samoa held its Republican caucuses on Friday -- days after former President Donald Trump's only remaining major opponent, Nikki Haley, suspended her campaign.

Based upon results from the American Samoa Republican Party, ABC News reports that Trump will win.

The caucus took place from 11:30 p.m. Friday until 2:30 a.m. Saturday EST.

The American Samoa Democratic caucus happened earlier this week on Super Tuesday, and President Joe Biden was dealt his first loss -- and to a surprising candidate.

A little-known candidate, Jason Palmer, won over Biden, though the overall vote total was tiny: less than 100 ballots.

Territory's significance

American Samoa is a U.S. territory and not a state -- so it does not cast electoral votes for president of the United States. However, it does hold presidential caucuses.

American Samoa has 11 delegate votes in the Democratic National Convention and nine delegates in the Republican National Convention.

In 2020, former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg was the Democratic winner; in 2016, the last contested Republican caucuses, Trump won.
