WHO CAN VOTE?
Any registered Democrat who resides in the Congressional District in which the caucus is being held and signs a pledge of support for that particular presidential candidate by 3:00pm may participate as a voter. Democrats go to the caucus of the presidential candidate they are supporting, and therefore cannot attend more then one caucus.
