Idaho Dems release delegate selection plan for 2016 presidential race
The Idaho Democratic Party has released its delegate selection plan for the 2016 presidential election; Idaho Democrats will elect 384 delegates to their state convention at county caucuses around the state on March 22, based on their presidential preference, and then the state convention in June will elect 24 delegates to the national Democratic Party convention in Philadelphia. An array of complex rules governs the delegates, and presidential candidates have approval over the national delegates who will head to Philadelphia pledged to support them; the delegates will be apportioned based on the results of the county caucuses, with a 15 percent threshold - candidates who get less than 15 percent support won't be assigned delegates. Delegates must cover all their own costs to attend the conventions, and qualify for specific delegate categories. There’s more info here.
The Idaho Republican Party will skip caucuses this year, and instead apportion its presidential delegates based on a presidential primary election on March 8.
