This Sunday, April 13, you get to pick the delegates who will be sent from California to the Democratic National Convention in Denver next August. Whether you support Sen. Hillary Clinton or Sen. Barack Obama, you’ll have a chance to determine who goes to Denver and who watches on TV.
The caucuses to elect the delegates will take place on April 13th everywhere in the state at 3:00 p.m., with sign-in and voting starting at 2:00 p.m. You must be in line by 3 p.m. to receive a ballot.
Every aspect of the 2008 Democratic presidential race has generated lots of enthusiasm and excitement, so we expect that these caucuses will be very well attended. This raises the likelihood of long lines as people sign in to get their ballots.
In order to cut down on the waiting time, the California Democratic Party has developed the widget below to allow attendees to pre-register online.
The deadline for pre-registration is Thursday, April 10th at 12:00 Noon.
Just fill in the blanks and follow the prompts. You can cut down on the long lines and help out the campaign volunteers who are staging these events by taking this simple step ahead of time.

You can only vote in one caucus and you MUST vote in the Congressional district where you are registered as a Democrat. Please plan to get to your caucus early so you have plenty of time to park and sign in. You must be in line by 3:00 p.m. in order to receive a ballot.
We hope you take this opportunity to come out and participate in the next step of the historic 2008 presidential election and help choose the delegates who will represent you at this summer’s Democratic convention.
