UPDATE III:Alaska delegation challenges delegates’ recorded vote.
The Alaska delegation is openly disputing the delegate count reported by the RNC, which is certainly not in line with the RNC’s expectations.

The Alaska delegation has concerns about the way votes are being recorded and requests that a vote be held among individual delegates. #RNCinCLE

Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus said that under Rule 16-A-2, a tied vote is transferred to the only candidate remaining in some states. That applies only to a handful of delegations (no more than four at this convention), and the secretary must first read the tied vote, which is why the totals for several states appear to have been different. Alaska’s delegate count is 28 for Trump.
