Caucuses are local gatherings where party members meet to discuss candidates, express preferences, and select delegates for nominating conventions. Iowa is famous for its first-in-the-nation caucuses.
Caucuses provide direct voter participation and candidate interaction, allowing voters to evaluate candidates in person before making selection decisions.
Caucuses don't use secret ballots—participants physically group themselves to show support for different candidates, which can influence voter decisions.
