DENVER (AP) -- It's Super Tuesday, and Colorado isn't entirely left out of the action.

Colorado Democrats hold precinct caucuses Tuesday night.

Democrats are meeting four weeks after their Republican counterparts held precinct caucuses to choose presidential favorites.

Democrats have no contested presidential contest, so their precinct caucuses have attracted little attention. Democrats also have no statewide officers or contested congressional primary battles, so Democrats who meet tonight will be deciding more local matters.

Like the GOP, Colorado's Democratic Party also has county caucuses and a statewide convention planned for later this spring.

Most of the nation's political attention Tuesday is going to the 10 states with primaries and caucuses likely to redefine the race for the Republican presidential nomination.
