National Delegate Selection Plan from the Idaho Democratic Party. 14 March 2024: Presidential candidate filing deadline. 30 March 2023: H 138 was signed into law by Governor Brad Little (Republican). HB 138 was thought to consolidate the presidential primary with the state Primary so that all primary elections are held on the 3rd Tuesday in May ... but it does not specifically add a Presidential Primary to the state primary on the 3rd Tuesday in May so it effectively eliminates the Presidential Primary. [Idaho Statutes Title 34 Chapter 1. 34-102.] circa 19 April 2023: The Idaho legislature adjourned without restoring the Idaho presidential primary. 5 May 2023: A Message from the Chair: Presidential Primary Mess Needs a Legislative Fix from Lauren Necochea, Idaho Democratic Party Chair. 8 May 2023: Idaho is planning for a caucus in 2024. 19 May 2023 Idaho Democratic Party post draft plan with the disclaimer: "On March 30th, Governor Little signed HB 138, which moved Idaho's Presidential Primary back to May. Due to an issue in the bill Idaho’s Primary has mistakenly been eliminated altogether. Due to this the Idaho Dems have written a caucus plan for the 2024 delegate election. It is our hope that the legislature will fix this issue. Due to this this plan is highly likely to change." |

All citizens who reside in tIdaho, and publicly declare themselves to be participating as Democrats and that they will not participate in the nominating process of any other party for the corresponding election shall be allowed to participate in the party Caucus/Convention system.

20 of 24 delegates to the Democratic National Convention are allocated to presidential contenders in proportion to the percentage of the support each candidate receives. A mandatory 15 percent threshold is required in order for a presidential contender to be allocated National Convention delegates at the congressional district level or statewide level. Here is how the Democratic Proportional Delegate Allocation Math works.
The number of delegates per CD shown below will be updated once the party finalizes their plan.
