President Ronald Reagan and Vice President George H. W. Bush at the 1984 Republican National Convention in Dallas, Texas.
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
- Jeane J. Kirkpatrick 1
- Jack F. Kemp 1
- Abstaining 2
This was the last time in the 20th century that the Vice Presidential candidate of either major party was nominated by roll call vote.
