PRE-REGISTER HERE​ 

WHY PRE-REGISTER?​ It's required so we can check your voter registration, precinct number, & house district. Within a week or so after you pre-register we'll send you a Delegate Interest form to see if you're interested in becoming a delegate to our county and higher assemblies, as well as becoming a Precinct Organizer (PO), Election Judge, or other volunteer. Once we verify your eligibility to attend we'll send you your individual zoom link. For guests, press, & observers, caucus & assembly will be live streamed on our  YouTube channel.  

​

WHAT HAPPENS AT CAUCUS & WHY SHOULD I ATTEND? At this very short meeting we'll elect 2 precinct organizers (POs) per precinct (visit this page to learn more about what POs do), we'll recruit people to be Election Judges in this critical midterm election year, and caucus attendees can be delegates to the county assembly simply by staying on the Zoom link. If you want to help get candidates on the state primary ballot for county commissioner, HDs 58 & 59, CD3, & CD3 SBOE you must attend caucus to be a delegate to our county assembly. If you want to go to state assembly as a delegate to get your favorite candidates on the state primary ballot, you must attend caucus.

ASSEMBLY

​

WHEN? Saturday, March 7, 2026, immediately after the conclusion of caucus, approximately 9:45 am

 

WHAT GETS DONE AT COUNTY ASSEMBLY AND WHY SHOULD I ATTEND?

• First, delegates will certify the newly elected POs.

• Then delegates will vote to approve the Democratic nominee/s for county commissioner (currently Rebecca Busic is the declared candidate). To get on the primary ballot a candidate must receive 30% of the vote. Short speeches will be given by candidates and their nominators/seconders. There will be a call for nominations from the floor.

• Next delegates will vote for their preferred candidates for HDs 58 & 59, and Congressional District 03, only if there is more than 1 Democrat running in these races. You must live in the district in order to vote and be a delegate to that assembly. 

• Finally, delegates will vote for their preferred candidate for US Senate. ​
