The Bernie people are definitely asking for volunteers to attend in order to help.

Also, as I understand it, no one who was not elected as a delegate or alternate at the precinct caucus can become one later.

However, (also as I understand it) the state party has reinterpreted the rules to mean that an alternate can fill the seat of an absent delegate in a different precinct within the LD. This could help prevent the kind of flip that happened in Las Vegas. It also makes the presence of alternates much more critical, and the campaign is urging all alternates to show up.
