WESTBOROUGH – Registered Democrats in Westborough will hold a caucus at 3 p.m. on Sunday, June 11, at Tatnuck Booksellers, 18 Lyman St., to elect delegates and alternates to the 2023 Massachusetts Democratic State Convention. 

There will be a meeting immediately following the caucus.

This year’s state convention will be held Sept. 23 at the Tsongas Center in Lowell, where thousands of Democrats from across the state will come together to discuss party business and celebrate success as they prepare for upcoming elections.

The caucus is open to all registered and pre-registered Democrats in Westborough. Pre-registered Democrats who will be 16 years old by June 11, 2023, will be allowed to participate and run as a delegate or alternate. Westborough can elect 11 delegates and four alternates to the convention.

“For people interested in being involved in politics, this is a great opportunity to learn more and meet like-minded people,” said Jonathan Rappaport, co-chair of the Westborough Democratic Town Committee. “There are some wonderful candidates who will be running for a variety of local, state and national offices next year. At this meeting we will also discuss ways to get involved in campaigns, both locally and nationally.”

Youth, underrepresented ethnic and racial groups, people with disabilities, and LGBTQ individuals who are not elected as a delegate or alternate may apply to be an add-on delegate at the caucus or at www.massdems.org.

Those interested in getting involved with the Westborough Democratic Town Committee should contact co-chairs Jonathan Rappaport at 508-335-1670 or Sue McAlice at 508-439-1768.
