The 2000 South Dakota Republican presidential primary took place on June 6, 2000, as one of five final primaries on the same day in the Republican Party primaries for the 2000 presidential election. The South Dakota primary was a closed primary, with the state awarding 22 delegates to the 2000 Republican National Convention, of whom all 22 were pledged delegates allocated on the basis of the primary results.
Texas governor and presumptive nominee George W. Bush won the primary with roughly 79% of the vote and won 22 delegates, helping him solidify his presumptive nomination over John McCain, who had suspended his campaign three months earlier. McCain garnered 14% of the vote, while Alan Keyes received roughly 8%. Minor candidate James Attia received under 1% of the vote.
