Precinct Caucuses videos
Iowa isn't the only state with caucuses. Minnesota's precinct caucuses are February 7. Click here for locations. Sign-in starts at 6:30, convene at 7:00. This first video was produced by the DFL of SD42. It doesn't go through the details of what goes on at a caucus, but it explains the why reasonably well, and for those who have never been to a caucus, hopefully this will make it seem worthwhile and inviting.
This video was produced by the Al Franken campaign for 2008. It's a good explanation of the process of electing delegates. Frequently in our district, there are as many delegate slots as people willing to be delegates, but we use the subcaucusing procedure at the convention. A narrator mentions that there's other business before the delegate selection begins. That's actually pretty important business. Caucuses are also when we start electing local party officials and start building the party platform. Above all, this is when we meet other DFLers in our precinct and build the grassroots.
These videos are from the state DFL's Affirmative Action Commission. The first is in Spanish, the second in Somali.
