2024 GOP primary endorsements: Where they stand

An increasing number of Republicans are weighing in when it comes to their party’s 2024 presidential choice with the first caucuses and primaries now underway. 

At least 132 House Republicans and 30 GOP senators have endorsed former President Trump’s 2024 comeback bid. No other candidate comes anywhere close to having that level of support from Republican members of Congress. More than a dozen Republican governors have also endorsed candidates in the race, most of them also backing Trump.
