  2. Article 2. Party Organization

§ 2-122. National party conventions; delegates, election. Delegates

and alternates to a national convention of a party shall be elected from

congressional districts, or partly from the state at large and partly

from congressional districts, as the rules of the state committee may

provide. Such delegates and alternates from the state at large shall be

elected by the state committee or by a state convention of the party, as

the rules of the state committee shall prescribe. If the rules of a

national party provide for representation by gender among delegates

elected from districts, such district delegates shall be elected

separately by gender. District delegates and alternates to national

party conventions and delegates, and alternates, if any, to such a state

convention shall be elected at a primary. All delegates and alternates

to a national party convention shall be enrolled members of such party.

When any such rule provides for representation by gender, the

designating petitions and primary ballots shall list candidates for such

party positions separately by gender marker. In providing for such

representation, the party shall establish rules that provide for the

ability of individuals who do not exclusively identify as a binary

gender to serve as delegates and which respect individuals' gender

identity.
