| | Caucus - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Another prominent example is the Congressional Hispanic Caucus, whose members voice and advance issues affecting Hispanics in the United States and Puerto Rico. | | | One of the best-known examples is the Congressional Black Caucus, a group of African-American members of Congress. | | | According to some sources, it comes from the Algonquin word for "counsel," cau´-cau-as´u, and was probably introduced into American political usage through the Democratic Party machine in New York known as Tammany Hall, which liked to use Native American terms. |

| | The results of this caucus activity on both the Democratic and Republican sides are not binding on the elected delegates, but the delegates usually feel obligated to follow the wishes expressed by the caucus-goers. | | | On caucus night, Iowans gather by party preference to elect delegates to the 99 county conventions. | | | Any voter who is a registered Republican or Democrat, and can prove residency in Iowa, can participate in the caucus of their party. |

| | Online NewsHour Vote 2004 The Democratic Primaries The Primary Versus The Caucus |
| | In a primary, as in a caucus, voters elect delegates who support their candidate choice, but the vote is taken by ballot and the process is similar to a general election. | | | Each state party uses its own rules for delegate selection, but those rules are subject to approval from the Republican National Committee or the Democratic National Committee and the state's election law. | | | The caucus, however, encourages more intense voter participation in the nominating process than does a primary. |

| | To be sure, we hope that voters will pay close attention to the candidates' positions on important issues of the day, but the ballot of a completely uninformed voter counts equally with the ballot of the president of the League of Women Voters. | | | Needless to say, participation in a caucus demands much more of the voter than a traditional election does. | | | Only after considerable debate will votes be cast, and the results of the individual caucuses then aggregated on a statewide basis. |
