On January 19, 2008, both the Democratic and the Republican Parties will hold their presidential caucuses in Nevada. Members of the respective parties will meet with other registered voters within their precinct to determine their preferred presidential candidate and thereby award delegates to the candidates. These meetings are open to the public, but only registered voters of the respective party may participate in the selection process. The Secretary of State plays a limited role in the caucus process. A caucus is governed by rules established by a political party. The Secretary of State’s office will provide both parties with the official registration file for the allocation of delegates, assist both of the parties in ensuring that any applicable federal and state election laws are enforced, and insure that all eligible voters who qualify pursuant to the respective political party rules have the ability to participate.
