The Democratic Party is holding its own presidential preference caucus on February 5th.  Valerie Espinoza, Santa Fe County Clerk, will have County elections staff available to assist Santa Fe County voters in finding their caucus polling places.  The caucus runs from noon until 7 PM, and voters can call the County during that time at 986-6288 and 986-6280.

The Democratic Party has consolidated the 86 Santa Fe County precincts into 22 polling places around the county.  Voters can access information from the state Democratic party at the website: www.nmdemocrats.organd at 1-800-624-2457.

None of the 33 county clerks' offices in New Mexico play a role in a caucus.  They, instead, run the June 3rd Primary Election.  The Republican Party will have candidates running in all positions in the Primary.  The Democratic Party will have all candidates except the presidential candidates.
