The ABCs of the Democratic and
Republican Caucuses and Primaries!

Democrats and Republicans participate with their own party members exclusively to decide their presidential preferences for the election. The Democratic party was the first party to initiate the Caucus procedure. The Republican party followed with a Straw Poll. For a step-by-step guide to the Caucuses and Primaries, please see: http://www.iowacaucus.biz/IA_Caucus_Howitworks.html.
