Ron Paul Republican Iowa Caucus Training

There are 1774 different Iowa Caucus meetings that will occur at 7:00 pm on Tuesday, January 3rd 2012. It’s a straightforward process, but Ron Paul supporters should share and familiarize themselves with the key points of this process. This will ensure an even greater impact on the night of the caucus.

Presentation by Jason Glass, Iowa grassroots volunteer.

You can find your caucus location here at the Iowa Secretary of State website.

If possible, arrive by 6:15 p.m.

Who can vote?

Any individual who resides in the local precinct can vote in the Caucus. If you’re not currently registered to vote, you can register at the Caucus location – but please be sure to arrive an additional 30 minutes early if you need to register.

Please note you must bring a valid federal ID. And don’t forget to bring as many friends, family members, and neighbors as possible with you to the Caucus to vote for Ron Paul.

What to do at the Caucus:

At your Caucus, you have two main goals.

First, vote for Ron Paul in the Presidential Preference Straw Poll.

Before the vote, there will be an opportunity for someone to speak on behalf of each candidate. Arrive early and discuss who should speak amongst your fellow supporters. Keep in mind, most locations will already have someone designated to speak.

If you are speaking, you will only have 2-5 minutes to communicate your points about Ron Paul. This is not enough time to express intricate details about foreign policy and philosophical statements. Focus on your own story and why you have come to put your trust in Ron Paul. Stay positive. If you seem trustworthy, others will trust you.

After voting takes place, most folks will leave – DON’T!

It is critical that as many Ron Paul delegates are elected as possible. So please sign up to become a delegate or raise your hand when asked, and be sure to vote for other Ron Paul supporters as delegates.

How to win:

Winning your Caucus is all about TURN OUT, TURN OUT, TURN OUT. Bring everyone you know with you to vote for Ron Paul.
