Minnesotans can access the 2012 Caucus Finder at http://caucusfinder.sos.state.mn.us to find the precinct caucus times and locations provided by the political parties.
During these meetings political parties will begin the process of selecting candidates for the 2012 election. Caucus attendees are encouraged to offer policy ideas (resolutions) that may go on to become party policy positions.
Caucus attendees interested in voting, offering resolutions or serving as a delegate at a precinct caucus must be eligible to vote in the 2012 general election, live in the precinct and be in general agreement with the principles of the political party.
