McSweeny III February 18, 2022 Each year, Democratic Party caucuses are held in every city and town in Massachusetts to elect delegates to the state Convention in accordance with Massachusetts Democratic Party guidelines (www.massdems. org). Due to the pandemic, last year’s state convention was held virtually. The 2022 convention will, the party hopes, offer both in-person and virtual participation options. Malden’s caucus for all wards will take place on Saturday, March 5, 2022, at 10:00 a.m. via Zoom. Attendees are required to preregister online for the caucus at https://us02web. zoom.us/meeting/register/tZcpdOqtqDwuEt2FK9RDLGX3nGya-V7mHhrO. The Zoom room will open no later than 9:30 and you may preregister up to the time of the caucus. The registration link can also be found on MassDems.org. Participants will be assigned to breakout rooms by ward. Those interested in participating should arrive promptly, as registration for the caucus will close at 10:15. Who can participate? To vote at a given ward’s caucus, you must be a registered or preregistered Democrat and live in the ward. To become a delegate or alternate from your ward, you must be elected during the caucus by other attendees from your ward. (You must attend in order to be elected.) MDCC will have a list of registered Democrats; if you recently registered or changed your registration, you should be prepared to show proof of registration. Young people who have preregistered as Democrats and reached the age of 16 by February 4, 2022, may vote in the caucus, run as delegates and be elected as delegates to the convention. They should be prepared to supply proof of preregistration. The Massachusetts Democratic Party is committed to representing the party’s diversity at its annual Convention. In electing delegates, the Party works to maximize gender balance and inclusion. Candidates who identify as gender nonbinary can run for delegate or alternate without needing to classify themselves as male or female. Members of potentially underrepresented groups – including those 35 or under, racial and ethnic minorities, people who identify as LGBTQ+ and people with disabilities – who were not elected as delegates or alternates at their caucus may apply to the Massachusetts Democratic Party as “addon delegates” to the convention. The Party evaluates the diversity of elected delegates in relation to party registration and draws from the pool of add-on applicants to maximize fair representation. DEMOCRATS | SEE PAGE 14
