I'll catch on eventually.

Of course not all states have caucuses, which I think is a shame. I think in those cases you would work through the Democratic Executive Committee in your county. That's how it seemed to work when I lived in Florida anyway. I went for a while. I was in Palm Beach county and the mean age was about 75. Boy did they love to argue. Those folks put DU to shame.
