The 1924 National Convention of the Republican Party of the United States was held in Cleveland, Ohio at the Public Auditorium. For this convention the method of allocating delegates changed in order to reduce the overrepresentation of the South.http://www.thegreenpapers.com/Hx/NatDelegates2004.html This effort proved only partly successful as Southern delegates would actually be more overrepresented then they had been in 1916 or 1920; however, they were not as overrepresented as they had been before 1912.
