Take a look at the following for the procedure in the Kansas Caucus....

It begins:
Saturday 10 March 2012: All 40 of Kansas’ delegates to the Republican National Convention are allocated to presidential contenders based on the results of the voting in today’s Precinct Caucuses. Caucuses begin at 10:00 AM CST. [Section II. 1.] Each voter casts 1 ballot for the candidate of his or her choice. [Section IV. 2. B.]
and ends with:
National Convention Delegates are bound unless released by the candidate. [Section VI. 1.]
Wrong delegates are bound.
