SOUTH HADLEY DEMOCRATIC CAUCUS SET FOR MARCH 12, 2016

SOUTH HADLEY DEMOCRATS WILL HOLD CAUCUS TO SELECT CONVENTION  DELEGATES ON MARCH 12, 2016, 11:00 AM AT SOUTH HADLEY PUBLIC LIBRARY

Registered Democrats in South Hadley will hold a caucus at the South Hadley Public Library, which is fully handicap accessible, on Saturday, March 12, 2016, to elect ten delegates (five male; five female) and three alternates to the 2016 Massachusetts Democratic Convention. Registration begins at 10:30 and closes at 11:00 am, at which time the caucus will begin.

The caucus is open to all Democrats who were registered in South Hadley as of January 31, 2016, and the South Hadley Democratic Town Committee warmly welcomes participants. Candidates for delegate and alternate must consent to nomination in writing and must be present at the caucus. In the spirit of inclusion, youth, minorities, and people with disabilities who are not elected as delegates or alternates may apply to be “add-on” delegates.

This year’s State Democratic Convention will be held on June 4 at the Tsongas Arena in Lowell.

The South Hadley Democratic Town Committee meets on a regular basis, and meeting dates, time and location are posted at the Town website.
