There are only 10 states that use the caucus system, these states are Alaska, Colorado, Hawaii, Kansas, Maine, Minnesota, Nevada, North Dakota, Wyoming and Iowa. Virginia uses primary for election purposes.
First of all Caucus is spelled incorrectly in the question. No there are seven caucus states for 2008. The number can change from year to year. A state can either have a caucus or a primary election, they are two different methods for selecting a candidate for each party. Some states traditionally have a caucus from year to year, New Hampshire and Iowa being two great examples. For 2008, Five of the Seven Caucus states are: Minnesota North Dakota Iowa New Hampshire Nevada
Caucus
A caucus is a meeting where members of a political party discuss political business. The two major parties in the U. S. are the Republican Party and the Democratic Party.
The Conservative Caucus was created in 1974.
Left Caucus was created in 1979.
Well, there was the Iowa Caucus, then the Wyoming caucus (but the news didnt seem to care about that one) and then the new hamshire caucus, but im not sure which one was the most recent
The first state caucus was held in Ohio.
The term 'caucus' can be used as both a noun and a verb, and absolute secrecy is a part of neither.As a noun, a caucus is a group of officials with similar interests and goal, such as the Congressional Black Caucus, the Iowa Republican Caucus, the Congressional Hispanic Caucus, or similar.As a verb, the term "to caucus" is when these groups meet and vote, with voting procedures ranging from secret ballot, to a show-of-hands, to a voice-vote.
Iowa is the first caucus, which is held in January.
I asked the caucus for their opinion on a matter of law.
