A caucus is a gathering of neighbors to discuss issues and organize the local DFL party unit. All parties have their caucuses on the same night, and the next statewide precinct caucus date is February 27, 2024. 

Many DFL Interest Groups promote resolutions. Follow your issues of concern, and ask if an organization has drafted caucus resolutions...or write your own. Present your resolutions to your caucus, and participants will vote yes or no to adopt it.  If adopted, all the delegates at the Itasca County DFL convention will vote on their top resolutions. Those resolutions will be forwarded to the state’s DFL Central Committe for a final vote.

Registration begins at 6:30 pm or earlier. Business starts at 7 pm. Participants must: 

• currently reside in the precinct; 

• be at least 16 years old by November 5, 2024 and understand they must be at least 18 years old by November 5, 2024 to be eligible to vote or run for any position elected at the caucus;  

• consider themselves a member of the DFL party; *not be active members of any other political party; and 

• agree with the principles of the DFL party, as stated in the State DFL Constitution and Bylaws. 

Each voting precinct will: 

• Elect delegates and alternates to attend the Organizing Unit and/or Senate District Conventions,

• Adopt resolutions for consideration in the State DFL Action Agenda or Ongoing Platform,

• Elect precinct officers to two-year terms
