A caucas is a group within a party that discuss the potential candidates and determine which candidates most closely match their views on various issues.

California holds primaries, specifically a top-two primary system for most elections, including presidential primaries.

California does not use caucuses for its elections.
Since 1972, Iowa has held the first caucuses of the presidential primaries.
