Question
there are two main ways that states award their delegates: primary elections and caucuses. read the information below:
most states have primary elections, in which state governments hold a vote, and people individually select the candidate they would like for the party’s nomination. the candidate who receives the most votes wins most or all of the state’s delegates.
some states have caucuses, where people attend private local meetings run by political parties. in local caucuses, participants discuss the election and divide themselves into groups by the candidate they support. uncommitted participants form their own group. each candidate’s group gives speeches and tries to get others to join. the number of voters in each group at the end of the caucus determines how many delegates each candidate wins.
sort the statements by whether they describe primary elections or caucuses.
participants attend a large meeting to discuss the candidates.
people’s decisions are anonymous.
people vote to show which candidate they support.
people select a candidate by forming a group with others who support the same person.

caucuses
- Primary elections: From the text, primary elections involve people secretly selecting a candidate (anonymous vote) and voting to show support. So "People’s decisions are anonymous" and "People vote to show which candidate they support" fit.
- Caucuses: Caucuses have large meetings for discussion and people form groups with like - minded supporters. So "Participants attend a large meeting to discuss the candidates" and "People select a candidate by forming a group with others who support the same person" fit.
