Caucus!

Today I attended my first ever caucus.

The numbers:
My precinct: 110 voters came (estimate 1/3 of total voters for precinct)
Obama: 78 votes, 4 delegates
Clinton: 31 votes, 2 delegates
Undecided: 1
2 hours

Impressions:
We were at a school, and about 10 precincts gathered there. It was very crowded, and a little chaotic. I heard probably double from the last caucus. I wish I had brought my camera! Sadly, no pics from me.

One of the guys in my precinct challenged the delegate assignment math. He was well heeled, young, wife and child, obviously successful and used to taking leadership.

Delegates turned out to be actual people from the precinct. We asked who wanted to be a delegate, who wanted to be an alternate, and had the right number volunteer. These folks get to go on to the county convention? and cast the votes for the candidate.

It was cool to see neighbors I'd never seen before, all crammed into a small room with small chairs, making democracy happen.
