IMPORTANT NOTE: Your Arapahoe County Republican caucus locations will be posted on this website. Due to redistricting and reapportionment, your precinct number and caucus location will be different in 2012 than it was in the past. Be sure to check here for the latest information. We expect to know everyone's precinct number and caucus locations by mid-January 2012.

The Arapahoe County Republican Caucus will be held at various locations throughout Arapahoe County on February 7th, 2012. Check-in will begin at 6:30pm and the caucus itself will begin at 7:00pm. You are encouraged to arrive at 6:30pm so the meeting can start promptly at 7:00pm, and we can make every effort to be done by 9:00pm.

Caucus is a process in which you and your Republican neighbors meet together to elect two Republican leaders for your precinct (known as "precinct committee people") and to elect two or more delegates and alternates to the Arapahoe County Republican Assembly.

The two precinct committee people represent the precinct at the Arapahoe County Republican Central Committee for two years and will have an influence on the direction of the county party for those two years.

When you arrive at the caucus location, you will proceed to the room assigned to your precinct. In order to help make things as efficient as possible, please enter your address at the top of this page to find your caucus location and the specific room number for your precinct. If you arrive at the caucus location and don't know in which room your precinct is meeting, someone will be there to help you find the right room.

There are two Republican precinct committee people in every precinct. This is an official elected office that is stipulated by Colorado Election Law.

The two precinct committee people represent Republicans in the precinct at the Arapahoe County Republican Central Committee. They will have the opportunity to vote for the party chairman, vice-chairman, secretary, and treasurer at the Organizational Meeting in February 2013. They may also vote on other important business that may come before the Central Committee during their two-year term. As such, precinct committee people will help set the direction of the county party during their term.

Every precinct is entitled to at least two delegates and two alternates to represent the precinct at the Arapahoe County Republican Assembly in March 2012. Depending on how many votes the precinct cast for the Republican candidate for President or Governor in the last general election, the precinct may be entitled to additional delegates and alternates.
