What is a Precinct Caucus?

Caucus is a grassroots way to be influential in your city! It's one town meeting to elect YOUR neighborhood representatives to represent YOU (called PCP's)! You also get to elect delegates or can be chosen as a delegate to our County Assembly that votes for which Republicans get to go on our Montrose Primary ballot in June in even numbered years!

Who can participate in Montrose Republican Precinct Caucuses?

All registered Republican voters:

• who have lived in the precinct (neighborhood) for at least 22 days
• who have been registered to vote no later than 22 days before Caucus;
• who have been affiliated with the Republican Party for at least 22 days before Caucus
• anyone who turns 18 or becomes a naturalized citizen less than 22 days before Caucus may participate
• a pre-registrant who is 17 years of age at Caucus but will be 18 years on the date of the next General Election

Each County Party MUST post a prominently displayed notice sign at the location of each Precinct Caucus at least twelve (12) days before Caucus.

Precinct Caucuses are held on a day between the first Tuesday through the first Saturday in March. You can even preregister for Caucus. Watch for a link on this website closer to time.
