From Precinct Caucus to National Convention
The 46th Democratic National

North Carolina the week of September

from all around the country will join
together to voice their opinion and vote
for their choice for the Democratic
Presidential ticket for the 2012 election.
Precinct Caucus
The process starts at your Precinct Caucus,
goes to the county level, the state level.
The Precinct Caucus allows Democrats in
your community to decide who they want
to be the nominee for president.
If you want to go to Charlotte, here’s
what you will have to do:

2012 and get elected by others in your
precinct to be a delegate to your County
Convention based on who you support for
President.

If elected a delegate, you must attend
your County Convention which will be
held between June 1st and June 10th,
depending on your county. You may
contact your county Democratic Party
Chair for more information about the
County Convention.
•
At the County Convention, you must be
elected by the delegates to State Convention
