No individual shall be eligible for election by the participants of the caucus whose name has not been filed with the Chairperson for the Arlington County Democratic Committee, Peter Rousselot, or his designated representative, at ACDC Headquarters, 2009 14th Street N, Suite 612, Arlington, VA 22201, by 5:00 p.m. on Wednesday, December 26, 2007.

In order to certify the eligibility of a candidate for election, the Chairperson shall ascertain that he or she is a resident of and registered to vote in the precinct in Arlington County, Virginia, for which he or she seeks election; is a Democrat; does not intend to support, endorse, or assist any candidate who is opposed to a Democratic nominee or endorsee; and is not a member of any other political party. A non-refundable filing fee payable to ACDC of $25 must accompany all candidate filings. The fee may be waived upon written request. There shall be two representatives from each electoral precinct in Arlington County except that each of the fourteen precincts which ranked highest in total number of votes cast for the Democratic candidate for Governor in the 2005 General Election shall have one additional representative.
