Colorado Democratic Assembly/Convention May 17th

Frequently Asked Questions

Are delegates required to check-in on Friday?

No. Delegates and Jefferson County alternates may optionally check-in on Friday afternoon or Saturday morning. This early check-in is intended to reduce the check-in lines on Saturday morning.

May alternates check-in on Friday?

Yes . Alternates from Jefferson County can optionally check-in on Friday afternoon because Jefferson County will seat alternates using on a ranking based on votes received in house district elections on March 15th.

When does registration begin?

Delegates and Jefferson County alternates may check-in either Friday afternoon from 1 PM to 7 PM at the Double Tree Hotel or Saturday at 7 AM at the World Arena.

How will Jefferson County alternates be seated?

Jefferson County (and 3 other counties) will seat alternates using a ranked order that is based on the number of votes each alternate received at the house district convention/assemblies on March 15th. The seating of Jefferson County alternates will be by ranked order within house district and presidential preference. (Note: Most other counties will seat alternates based on time of check-in, however, we believe the ranking has the advantage of merit and convenience.)

When will I receive my call letter and credentials?

Call letters containing your credentials should be in your mail box by Wednesday, May 14th. If you are a delegate or alternate and you do not receive your credentials by mail you can get replacement credentials at the Hampton Inn, near the World Arena, begining at 7 AM on Saturday.
