The Ohio Democratic Party announced in a release Tuesday they will host 16 congressional district caucuses across the state on Tuesday, Jan. 7, to elect 89 district-level delegates and eight alternates to represent Ohio at the 2020 Democratic National Convention in Milwaukee.
“Ohio Democrats are clearly fired up for 2020 and excited about our field of presidential candidates,” said Ohio Democratic Party Chairman David Pepper. “Nearly 2,000 Ohioans have already filed to run for delegate and represent the Buckeye State at next summer’s Democratic National Convention, where we will formally elect our nominee to defeat Donald Trump.”
The deadline to apply to run for district-level delegate is Tuesday, Dec. 31, according to the release that included a link to the Ohio Dems’ delegate selection plan. The results of Ohio’s presidential primary on March 17 will determine the number of delegates each candidate is allocated in each congressional district and statewide.
The release said Ohio will have a total of 153 convention delegates and 11 alternates, evenly divided between men and women, with diversity goals for African Americans, Hispanic/Latinos, Native Americans, Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders, LGBTQ+, people with disabilities, veterans and young people (age 18-36).
Caucuses are open to the public and members of the news media, the release said.
It said that the caucuses will be held Tuesday, Jan. 7, with doors opening at 6 p.m., and caucuses starting at 7 p.m. at the following locations:
