So they divided us into a group in the gym and a group in the hallway. There were about 450 of us in the hallway - Obama won by about 100. I don't know how the gym vote turned out, they were still counting that when I left.

So your caucus is more like the Republican one in Iowa in which you vote rather than build the consensus?
This may have been covered before, and I apologize, but what actually separates a caucus from a primary when it's a one person with one vote kind of thing? And then, if anyone is feeling up to it, what makes a state convention to decide delegates different from a caucus?
