15. Those are standard caucus rules.
Edited on Sat Jan-05-08 03:28 PM by DFLforever
In Minnesota 17yrs old can caucus if they will be 18 by the November 2008 election.

Also, most of the colleges dorms weren't open yet on January 3 so it was smart to provide transportation to Iowa students who had gone home out of state for the holidays.

The issue of students voting where they attend college was a big victory won in the 1960's, I believe. Before that they had to vote absentee in their home states.
