WHATS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE DEMOCRATIC AND REPUBLICAN CAUCUSES?

There are several differences. The caucuses start at different times of day, 9 a.m. for the GOP, 11:30 a.m. for the Democrats. Democrats allow same-day registration. You must have been a registered Republican for at least 30 days to participate in the GOP caucuses. The caucuses are both delegate elections, but they are structured differently, with Democrats measuring candidates’ support based on a delegate count while Republicans conduct a secret-ballot straw poll after electing delegates.
