What is the Democratic caucus?  

A precinct caucus is a meeting of fellow Democrats from your local precinct to elect delegates to your county party’s Democratic assembly. Learn more about this grassroots-driven process via the Colorado Democratic Party. 

When are the 2026 Democratic caucuses?  Are they in person or online? 

• Caucuses will happen during the first week of March, between March 3 and March 7, depending on which county you live in. 

• When is my county hosting caucus and assembly? 

• Historically, caucus has always been a one-day event across the state during the first week of March. Now county parties have the option to pick days that best suit them. 

• Counties also have the option to conduct caucuses in person or as virtual online meetings.
