February 11, 2002 Iowa Precinct Caucuses

Iowa's precinct caucuses are best known for their first in the nation role in the presidential nomination process.  The parties also hold caucuses in non-presidential years to choose party officers, debate platforms, and conduct other business.  All three official political parties held caucuses on February 11, 2002, at 7 p.m.

The caucuses are a function of the political parties. The Auditor's Office does not conduct the caucuses, report results, or play a direct role.  The parties are required to report caucus locations to our office, and must turn in any voter registrations they receive.

Changes in 2002

The 2002 caucuses were the first major event using the new precincts established in 2001.  New precinct boundaries became effective on January 15, 2002.  If you are registered to vote in Johnson County, you should have received a new voter card listing your new precinct in the mail before the caucuses.

Three parties held caucuses this year.  The Iowa Green Party earned official party status following the 2000 general election (details) and held their first official caucuses as a ballot-status party on February 11.

Caucus Participation and Procedure

To participate in the caucuses, you must be a resident of the precinct, 18 years old as of the general election date (November 5, 2002) and registered to vote with the party whose caucus you attend.  (Note: You must be 17 1/2 years old to register to vote.  If you are under 17 1/2 but will be 18 by November 5, you can still participate in the caucuses.  Your party may have a special form for you to fill out indicating that you will register to vote when you turn 17 1/2.)  Parties may have a youth participation program for persons who will not be 18 by November 5; contact the parties for details.

Caucus participants must actually attend the caucus in the precinct in which they live - there is no absentee voting.  You can register to vote or update your registration on caucus night.  The parties are then responsible for returning the voter registration forms to our office.

Caucus participants discuss issues and candidates, choose party precinct officers, and elect delegates to the party's county convention.  County conventions elect delegates to congressional district and state conventions.

The number of county convention delegates elected from each precinct is determined by each party, based on how many votes the party's candidates received in that precinct in recent elections.
