Primary stakes are too high, caucus today!
Date: November 28, 4:44pm
If the media and early states get their way, the presidential nomination finalists will be decided by the end of February before more than half the nation gets a chance to voice their opinions. Sound fair?

The stakes are high in the next election and we can’t sit idly. Join the National Presidential Caucus (NPC) effort to confront the heavily compressed primary schedule we’re facing today. NPC is hosting a National Caucus Day on Dec. 7th and we’d love if you’d join us in organizing caucuses in your area!

www.nationalcaucus.com

To encourage voters to form opinions before the early primary states and the media determine who the leading candidates will be, NPC is asking people like you to host caucuses in their communities. It’s a great way to get your candidate and issue out there.
Here’s how it works:
-Post a caucus on the website
-Meet offline on December 7th to talk about issues and candidates that matter TO YOU
-Post your results on our website with all the other caucuses from across the nation

Hosting a caucus is as simple as getting some friends, family, or whomever you want together. It's really easy to do and we hope you'll take the next step and register your caucus with us.
1) Decide where you would like to host your caucus (your living room or backyard would work, or the local coffee shop)
2) Register as an organizer (email confirmation required): http://www.nationalcaucus.com/user/register
3) Post your caucus information: http://www.nationalcaucus.com/node/add/deccaucus
4) Spread the word about your caucus. Check out our toolkit for suggestions: http://www.nationalcaucus.com/toolkit
Here's a basic overview you might find helpful: http://www.nationalcaucus.com/about#what. Interested in hosting a caucus or have questions? Shoot me an email at maytak@nationalcaucus.com and I’d be happy to chat with you!
