Procedural Rules of the 2024 Democratic National Convention The deadline for candidates to submit their declaration of candidacy is Saturday 27 July 6p EDT. By Tuesday July 30 6p EDT, each candidate must submit pledges of support from 300 or more delegates-- from 6 different states (including AS, DC, Democrats Abroad, GU, MP, PR, and VI [the territories]). Not more than 50 pledges may come from 1 delegation. Balloting is likely to be circa 1 to 4 August. A majority vote of Convention delegates is required for nomination. If 1 candidate has the support of the number pledged delegates equal to or greater than a majority of all pledged and automatic delegates then all, the pledged and automatic, delegates will vote on the 1st ballot. Otherwise, on the 1st ballot, only pledged delegates will vote. If no one gets a majority on the 1st ballot, there will be a 2nd round in which all, the pledged and automatic, delegates will vote. On the 2nd, and any subsequent, roll call vote, only the two candidates who have received the highest number of votes on the first roll call shall be eligible for nomination. There will be a ceremonial roll call vote at the convention. |
