Ronald Reagan--the incumbent President-- was the assured nominee for the Republican Party. He was renominated by a vote of 2,233 (two delegates abstained).

For the only time in American history, the vice presidential roll call was taken concurrently with the presidential roll call. Results:

• • George H.W. Bush 2,231
