Answer

The Convener has been trained in advance to call the caucus to order (at 7:00 PM sharp) and to administer the business of the caucus. 

The Convener is not automatically elected to serve as the Caucus Chair of the Caucus, but we encourage each Caucus to elect the Convener to that role to help carry out the business purposes of the Caucus most efficiently.

A Convener does not need to reside in the applicable Precinct, but should satisfy all requirements for participation in a Precinct Caucuses generally.
