I have a confession to make. Despite being a political junkie, I was never quite sure exactly what a caucus is. That is because I have lived my life in Kentucky, a state that always uses closed primaries, where only a person registered in a particular party can decide the party's nominee. A state that uses secret ballots to choose their nominee.
Been on the road getting to Richmond for the dinner and now that we're here, we likely won't be able to follow results as closely as we'd like, so let us know what the results are as they come in in the comments.
