County/Congressional District Conventions
At the County/Congressional District Conventions held across Texas on Saturday, March 23, 2024, local delegates to those conventions will select State Delegates to represent them at the 2024 Texas Democratic Convention at the El Paso Convention Center held June 6-8, 2024. The amount of State Delegates that a County/Congressional District is generally allocated is based on the performance of the last Democratic Gubernatorial Nominee divided by 300, by rule.
Thanks to the Texas Democratic Party's Data Team crunching the numbers from the Texas Legislative Council's data that was made available in late January 2023, here are the State Delegate allocations by County/Congressional District at txdem.co/24-State-Delegates.
National Delegates
The Texas Democratic Party is excited to send National Delegates to the Democratic National Convention in Chicago, IL. Delegates are allocated to Presidential candidates based on the outcome of the March 5, 2024 Super Tuesday Primary in Texas.
The Texas 2024 National Delegate Selection Plan for the 2024 Democratic National Convention includes sending 273 National Delegates and 20 Alternates from the Texas Delegation from the 2024 Texas Democratic Convention in El Paso to the 2024 Democratic National Convention in Chicago -- an increase of 11 National Delegates and 1 Alternate from Texas’ 2020 Delegate Selection Plan.
Texas Democratic Party Rules
During the convention process this cycle, starting with an online preregistration sign up for County/Congressional District Conventions (where Texas Democrats can indicate their interest in becoming a State Delegate) made available by November 11, 2023, Texas Democrats will organize by the 38 Congressional Districts instead of the 31 Senate Districts, due to a rule amendment adopted during the 2022 Texas Democratic Convention (see the Preface in the TDP Rules at txdem.co/Party-Rules).
